Uisce Éireann: Future Work Programme
2:00 am
Mr. Niall Gleeson:
It has been allocated against the €10.3 billion. Uisce Éireann receives a certain amount from the State but we borrow through the Department of Finance based on the non-domestic income we have. We have a loan facility and some of that €1 billion was set against that facility. We wrote to the Minister to ask for clarification and we received that. For us, it is clear that we are getting the €10.3 billion or whatever is the commitment at the moment. I understand that the NDP is being looked at overall. What we are asking of the NDP for the next five years is €12.3 billion - the €10 billion plus the €2 billion - and that is the commitment we hope to get after the NDP review.
