Somehow I ended up sitting on the water charges committee. Rainwater in Ireland, especially in the cities, is running into the sewerage system. We are dealing with a greater amount of wastewater that is not technically waste. Are there any plans for dealing with this in the longer term? Run-off water would not need as much treatment as sewage. I am referring to separation.
