Mr. John McCarthy:
Irish Water is accountable to the Minister under a number of headings, not least in relation to the requirement to have its annual report and its accounts audited, to present them to the Minister and have them laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas. Irish Water is also accountable to the Oireachtas joint committee and I understand there are plans for Irish Water to come in to the committee in the coming weeks. Irish Water is accountable in a very important way for all its expenditure to the Commission for Energy Regulation.
