View answerWhile primary responsibility for the establishment for Irish Water is a matter for my colleague the Minster for Environment, Community and Local Government and his Department, my Department has progressed certain corporate governance tasks in Ervia in preparation for the establishment of Irish Water. I am advised that a meeting took place on 6 November 2013, attended by my predecessor, the then Minister for Environment, Community and Local Government, the Chair and CEO of Bord Gáis Éireann (now Ervia) and the Managing Director of Irish Water and officials from both Departments. The purpose of the meeting was to receive a progress update with regard to the Bord Gáís Group and Irish Water.
