I appreciate that Leas-Cheann Comhairle but this is a serious issue. Irish Water is rolling out more find and fix crews. We are putting more static tankers on sites and we are deploying more mobile tankers where they are needed. I understand the communications aspect. As I have said, I am meeting with Irish Water tomorrow and I have been in touch with it every day this week and last week. We will try to give as clear and precise communication as possible. Sometimes, however, when water pressure is low, it can be lost. It was not the intention. We are reviewing this and are increasing water pressure in those areas as a result.
