Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Future Funding of Domestic Water Services

Department of Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government, and Department of Finance

1:30 pm

Ms Maria Graham:

We also give the group water sector capital funding. This capital funding peaked at about €100 million per annum. It is now down to about €18 million. This is because we had a huge programme of works to improve the quality of the sector. However, the group water sector also has businesses, farms and so on, which we do not pay for. We must make an estimate working with the information we get from the federation of what would legitimately cover domestic use.
