Arthur Morgan (Louth, Sinn Fein)

I agree with the Minister's last point. We do not object to businesses and commercial users having to pay for the water they use. We do not disagree with that at all. We do not approve of the use of the term "consumer", however, because it is a catch-all phrase. If that term were more closely defined, I could more easily accept the Minister's argument. In the unfortunate absence of an acceptable definition, I will have to press the amendment.
