Mattie McGrath (Tipperary, Independent) | Oireachtas source

I am delighted to speak to this motion. The motion refers to the astounding and shocking findings in the Environmental Protection Agency, EPA, report, Urban waste water treatment in 2017, particularly wastewater treatment in 28 of Ireland's 179 large urban areas which failed to meet European Union standards. We talk about Brexit and everything else but this is a major indictment on us. This was on the Minister's and on his predecessor's watch. Níl sé ag éisteacht ach an oiread. I do not know what is going on. He is probably doing sign language or something like that because I do not do his sign language.
