Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

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

Mr. Feargal Ó Coigligh:

In terms of sustainability, those are things we would encourage. However, the full and separate reuse of grey water systems are quite complex, particularly in the context of building regulations. We need to encourage people to conserve water and to be careful in terms of its use. There is an education issue in that regard and Irish Water is doing a good job in trying to push out those notices with limited tools in terms of encouraging people to save water.

Perhaps Mr. Flynn would like to comment on that.
