Joe Higgins (Dublin West, Socialist Party)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to have an urgent debate on renewed pressure by Limerick County Council on the communities of Pallaskenry and Kildimo to accept water from an often polluted source, the River Deel, instead of their current adequate supply exclusively from Bleach Lough, a spring water lake, and the need to get Limerick County Council to withdraw its injunctions and threats of jailings, including of young mothers, and to respect the democratic wish of the community to keep the environmentally sound source of water which they currently enjoy.
