How is it practical to move from having a single port of call - the local authority - for people who may be affected by works being carried out on water infrastructure to having no clear lines of accountability or contact? People will not know if they should contact the local authority, Irish Water or one of its private contractors. They are not removed from proper lines of accountability or contact when it comes to issues that arise when works are being carried out on water infrastructure.
