Request to move Adjournment of Dáil under Standing Order 32
4:00 pm
Aengus Ó Snodaigh (Dublin South Central, Sinn Fein)
Molaim an Dáil a chur ar athló faoi Bhuan Ordú 32 chun an ghné seo a phlé: the urgent need for the Government to abandon its plans to impose water charges on ordinary households and in particular its intention, unveiled by the Minister yesterday, to base the rates on the German model, which charges its citizens more for water than any other country in the world and instead to upgrade the water distribution network, from which up to 58% of water supplies are wasted at present, as a fairer and more cost effective approach to water conservation.
