Water Services Bill 2003: Committee Stage (Resumed).
4:00 pm
Pat Gallagher (Donegal South West, Fianna Fail)
I am referring to any debt that would be due to a county or city council acting in its capacity as a water services authority. Section 52(6) enables the Minister to assign his powers to others, such as a group water scheme or contractors, to recover debts over and above the water services authority. This amendment provides the mechanism — nothing more, nothing less — for them to do so.
