Water Pollution.
4:00 pm
John Gormley (Dublin South East, Green Party)
The Deputy did not mention it but the judgment was very interesting with regard to the position in County Cavan. It specifically mentions the county in a good way because it points out that it is the only county that has by-laws relating to this issue. We must first put such by-laws in place. Notwithstanding this, it is clear that we must introduce specific legislation to deal with the issue. I hope there is a recognition on all sides of the House that it must be dealt with. Otherwise, regardless of who is in government, we will face very hefty fines.
