General Scheme of the Water Environment (Abstractions) Bill 2020: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Mary Gurrie:

Yes it is. On the 6%, as I said we will be running that assessment again to get the most up-to-date position. It is a national assessment but then one does identify the water body that is at risk of being impacted or maybe at risk of not meeting its objectives and one looks at what is going on then that is impacting on it. To clarify, one looks at the national picture and when it comes to the licensing and the detailed assessment it goes local.
