Brian Ó Domhnaill (Fianna Fail)

The Minister is tinkering around the edges if he is talking about €50 or €200. We are proposing the amendment because we believe there should be no charges. There is a way of doing it. There is €431 million in the Minister's budget this year for the maintenance and servicing of urban wastewater treatment systems. Some of that money should be diverted to rural Ireland. Unfortunately, we did not have the opportunity to put forward our de-sludging plan for every house in the country that would come out of that fund. We are asking the Minister, in terms of the retrofit scheme, to scrap the €2.7 billion project in north County Dublin-----
