There has been a huge focus on cost per litre but I would imagine there is much more involved in the regulation of Irish Water than just cost. In terms of what happens across the Irish Sea, targets are set. Will Irish Water set targets for leakage, for example? We are doing a combined drain, and therefore targets are set for sewer flooding. In the wastewater treatment plants targets are set for capacity and odour abatement. What other targets and monitoring elements will Irish Water be involved in with regard to regulating Irish Water?
