I am not in any way advocating for the return of domestic meter charging, and I want to be very clear on that, but people get really angry when they see persistent leaks in gardens that seep out onto the road. Often, there can be testing and Uisce Éireann says it is not fresh water, but pluvial and so on. Are there any other measures Uisce Éireann can take to try to prevent that or be more proactive in that? Does it need additional powers to be able to go onto properties, say, to proactively make repairs?
