I thank the Vice Chairman for allowing me in again. I thought I had asked a question the first time around, but what I got was a description of the EPA's job, which I am very aware of, so I will try again. How will we resolve the issue of understaffing in local authorities? They are the backbone of how information is fed into the EPA and Irish Water on many matters, including the framework directive that is due. What are we doing differently to ensure that we have increased infrastructure for serviced sites and town centres first? Is there any plan to promote the fact that there is a lot of good drinking water all over Ireland so as to stop the madness of spending millions of euro on plastic bottles of water?
