Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Future Funding of Domestic Water Services

Public Water Forum

1:30 pm

Mr. Jerry Grant:

To my knowledge, nobody has been disconnected at any time recently in the domestic or non-domestic sector. In the non-domestic sector there is provision for cutting off supply for failure to pay. That happens from time to time, and it happened under the local authorities. It still happens. We are very slow to do it. I cannot reference any specific circumstances. Domestic users are never cut off.
