Nithe i dtosach suíonna - Commencement Matters
Water Supply
2:00 am
Imelda Goldsboro (Fianna Fail)
I thank the Minister of State. It is great to hear he has had talks with Uisce Éireann in recent weeks. I understand, like any agency, that it has its own challenges and it has a number of concerns. To make progress, however, we have to make changes. Uisce Éireann has to listen to the developers, councils, Ministers and Government about what is going on. If it is not going to listen, we will not be able to change, adapt or amend these issues and concerns people have. I know our councils have a number of land banks. We are looking for developers and for affordable and social housing. We have developers, and to have this hindering progress is not good enough. I appreciate the Minister of State taking the time to look into this individual case.
