Phil Hogan (Carlow-Kilkenny, Fine Gael)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to ask the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government to indicate the measures he is considering to reassure citizens regarding water quality in this country, the action plan he is putting in place to ensure there is no risk to public health arising from the appalling contamination in 23 locations around the country identified to date, and to discuss this matter of enormous importance to all of us, namely, the issue of public health in the context of water quality.
