Chapter 7 - Matters Arising from Audit of Vote 25 - Environment, Community and Local Government in Relation to Water Services (5 Feb 2015) Seán Fleming: That is the PPP end of it. They are the current operational contracts and matters at design stage that Ms Graham said were done. The bigger issue, however, is the approximately €11 billion of fixed assets that have been out there over a period of time, in respect of which there is only €650 million, with a possible liability. We need a breakdown of that €11 billion. In...

Chapter 7 - Matters Arising from Audit of Vote 25 - Environment, Community and Local Government in Relation to Water Services (5 Feb 2015) Seán Fleming: It would be good to get information on the Department's relationship with the setting up of Irish Water. How will it tally with what I understand will be the commercial rates bill that the Department will pick up, which would be payable by any commercial semi-state organisation to local authorities in respect of assets in their area? How has the Department estimated what might be payable?...

Chapter 7 - Matters Arising from Audit of Vote 25 - Environment, Community and Local Government in Relation to Water Services (5 Feb 2015) Seán Fleming: It is an issue for another day, but I put it to Ms Graham that an annual rates bill of €60 million in respect of assets of €11 billion or €12 billion is very low. Any business man in the country would cut off his right arm to get such a low rates bill in respect of assets at that level of value. It would be very interesting to compare. A simple rule of thumb is that if...

The Department gave a subvention to Irish Water of €439 million in 2014, €399 million this year - 2015 - and €479 million next year. In addition, there are direct payments from the Central Fund. We will add it all up....
