On water and sewerage services, there was a time when members of local authorities would table a motion to get a sewerage scheme or a water scheme extended to a town or to have a new scheme put in place. How does that system operate at present? How is the need within towns and rural areas progressed in view of the fact that water and sewerage services are now considered a separate entity? Is it those involved in the latter who say that is a population in a particular area and that an extension is needed or is it the local authority that engages with them in the context of getting extensions or new schemes?
