Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Future Funding of Domestic Water Services

Department of Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government and Mr. Séamas Ó Tuathail, SC

1:30 pm

Mr. Séamas Ó Tuathail:

The Dáil, the courts and the Executive are the three bodies that operate in the Constitution. If there is a majority in the Dáil to carry a vote for a referendum then so be it and if there is not then so be it. The plebiscite, in the sense that I have heard it mentioned by the Department present, is a moveable obstacle, if it is an obstacle.
