I thank the Minister of State. I was aware of that. The majority of people in Macroom are aware of the upgrades that Uisce Éireann will be doing. The issue is in the interim, between now and 2026. What seems to be happening is, any time there is really bad weather or flooding, all of a sudden there is a boil water notice. Are we saying to the people of Macroom that they are supposed to continue with this pattern of boil water notices until these upgrades are done? It is going to put people under pressure and out of pocket. Uisce Éireann has offered nothing else that can be done for people, just telling them to boil their water and continue as they are or else go out of pocket and pay for water, because until 2026 nothing really is going to be done for them and they are going to keep going through the cycle.
