Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Water Quality and Infrastructure and Small Town and Villages Growth Programme: Discussion

Mr. Niall Gleeson:

Certainly, when the HSE contacted us with issues we reacted straight away.

We had some customer contacts, who came directly to us. We investigated those issues. Is Ms Attridge back online to talk about that incident? No, I am still not hearing her. When those issues occurred, we immediately went out and worked with the Wexford local authorities. We went out to the network. We believed there had been work ongoing on the networks so we believed there was a network issue at that time. The engineers went out to the individuals who had complained, flushed their networks and believed that there was a network issue. When we got further calls from 26 August, we then escalated and went back to the local authority. My understanding is they went back to the plant and then the issue was solved.
