Mr. Sean Laffey:

Eight or nine years ago, we asked local authorities, along with ourselves, to do an initial survey of all DPIs that had been left over from the Celtic tiger. We came back with a figure of 457. They are a solid core and we are looking at those. However, at the start of 2024, a letter was sent out that made it official that Uisce Éireann is responsible for those DPIs in the future. As a result of that, we have gone back out and done more surveys with local authorities. We have turned up certain locations where we believe that DPIs were missed during the first survey and we are examining those.
