Yes, I can email the witnesses that.
There have been another couple of incidents, and this goes back to who is in charge of water quality. In Ballyphehane, Cork, a number of residents have brown water coming out of their taps. It is the same in a couple of houses in Knocknaheeny. We have been contacting Irish Water for maybe a week or ten days and the issue has not been resolved. Irish Water has not put the areas on boil water notices. It has not come out to those areas. This is public drinking water from people's taps. To whom do we escalate such matters if Irish Water is not taking care of the issues?
