Committee on Infrastructure and National Development Plan Delivery

Uisce Éireann: Future Work Programme

2:00 am

Mr. Seán Laffey:

Yes. After the Celtic tiger crash, we had a population of about 4 million but no money was invested really until we came onto the pitch in 2014 and we have been ramping up ever since. In a lot of places, the infrastructure that serves towns and villages, and some cities, was built for a population that was present in 2007, not the 5.7 million or 5.8 million people that we have at the moment.
