Water Tariffs: Commission for Energy Regulation

Mr. Paul McGowan:
There may be efficiencies associated with that possibility. If less water is being lost then the company has less water to treat and so forth. Reduced usage of itself reduces costs. As well as that, we are continuing to impose operational expenditure efficiencies on Irish Water. As I have said, we impose a 7% per annum reduction on the company at the moment and we will be looking at that in terms of a full price-----
