516. Deputy Thomas P. Broughan asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the total costs and liabilities of Irish Water up to the end of 2015. [43144/14]
View answerThe establishment of Irish Water is an integral component of the Government’s water sector reform strategy and involves major organisational change. The establishment of a high performance utility will lead to lower costs and improved services in the future, providing much better outcomes for customers and the environment.
