Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I am aware of the issue and I understand, and we all accept, that the water supply is safe in south Dublin and north Wicklow. Safe is not the same as high quality, however, and people have a right to expect water that is of high quality and does not taste bad or smell offensive. I do not know the story behind that or why it has happened but I will certainly get my office to make inquiries and see if we can provide a report to Deputy Devlin on it.
