Dr. Cotter spoke about enforcement and she said that the EPA brought Irish Water to the courts. If the witnesses do not have the information now, they might send it on to me, but how many prosecutions have there been in the last two years or how many cases has the EPA brought to the courts? How many have involved farmers and how many have involved local authorities, fishery boards or forestry bodies? Can the witnesses answer that or get the information for me?
