Water Services Bill 2014: Second Stage (Resumed)
3:15 pm

The Minister acknowledged it is not ideal that we are coming to the House so late in the term with this Bill. The lateness is due to the fact there were so many hours of debate, over 40, in the Dáil. The original timetable for the Bill in this House did allow for an earlier start. The Leader also made it clear we did not guillotine the Water Services (No. 2) Bill last time and, as Senator Landy said, we had 20 hours of debate on the earlier Irish Water Bill. We will not be guillotining this Bill this time either.
