I wish to raise the issue of 13,600 people being on boil-water notices because of cryptosporidium. This has gone on for the past 18 months. I know the matter is going through the various legislative processes. Sligo County Council has forwarded the matter to the two relevant Ministers, Deputies Eoghan Murphy and Josepha Madigan. I understand that Deputy Murphy has dealt with his part of it and that it is now with Deputy Madigan.

I would like some information today for the people who have been on a boil water notice for some time. Has a decision been made yet? If not, when will a decision be made? Sligo County Council can do no more until there is an answer.
