I concur with everything Deputy Naughten said. He and I attended a meeting on this matter in Roscommon and, to be frank, I would be far more likely to believe the figures and dates supplied to us by Roscommon County Council than I would to believe the information provided by Irish Water. Deputy Naughten is 100% correct in what he said regarding temporary treatment plants. A boil water notice is currently in place in Williamstown. We need to start thinking outside the box and dealing with problems much more quickly. Businesses must be treated properly. I ask the Minister to ensure that when boil water notices are put in place, people will not be sent bills one way or the other.
