I though Senator Ó Domhnaill would welcome the section because it provides a facility for persons who are not satisfied with the charge set out in the water charges plan. The Bill clearly sets out that there is a method of calculation of charges in section 16 in respect of a customer to whom the approved water charges apply. Therefore, the section recognises that not everybody will come under the same category. Not everybody will have the same means and not everybody will use the same amount of water. Different households can have different needs.
