Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Issues Affecting the Quality of Water: Discussion

Dr. Michelle Minihan:

I will address the issue at Kilcloon to which the Deputy referred. I live in Kilcloon, County Meath, so I was keenly watching that incident. We carried out an audit in response to the incident of chlorine overdosing there. Actions were taken to address the findings of that audit and the recommendations have been addressed. We will provide a written update to the Deputy on that as a matter of course.
