The area offices are working extremely well. I have no doubt that when decentralisation is implemented, it will operate in a similar manner.

There is evidence from a number of local authorities that there is significant leakage of water from the networks. The Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government has been requested to come to the House to discuss a number of issues. I ask that this issue be dealt with also. The water supply network in a number of local authority areas is faulty and there is major loss through leakage. I would appreciate the opportunity to have a debate on this matter.
