I am just saying that in the context of where something might need to be adjusted. The Cathaoirleach's input on this is valued, but it is something we would have to consider in the context of a change in how Uisce Éireann operates.

Separately, the clear role we want to see being played in terms of additional investment for water and wastewater is all about housing supply. We are working with Uisce Éireann to see how we can best unlock supply not only in urban centres but also in towns across the country that need wastewater capacity, in particular, to drive housing supply. I will take away and consider what the Cathaoirleach said in that context.
