Primary responsibility for water quality rests with my colleague, the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government. The processes that are in place and the introduction of new measures to stop water pollution in Irish rivers and lakes are matters for the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government, and the relevant local authorities which come under its aegis, to decide.
