Diarmuid Wilson (Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I move amendment No. 49:

In page 18, line 3, after “Commission” to insert “and the Oireachtas”.

This relates to the codes of practice. Senator Ó Domhnaill's amendments seek that the codes of practice shall make provision for customer service standards, billing, methods of payment, the provision of information to customers of Irish Water and any other matters the Commission deems necessary. What he is providing for in this amendment is that the codes of practice should have an input from both Houses of the Oireachtas - the Dáil and Seanad - during their preparation.
