Written answers

Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government

I propose to take Questions Nos. 508 and 509 together.

Audited local authority financial data for 2013 is not yet available. Data relating to the water charges collected by the local authorities in 2012 was published in the Local Government Audit Service Activity Report 201 4 . This report is available on my Department’s website at the following link: http://www.environ.ie/en/Publications/LocalGovernment/AuditService/FileDownLoad,36881,en.pdf.

Question No. 510 answered with Question No. 488.
