Question 195: To ask the Tánaiste and Minister for Finance if he will introduce an amendment to the Valuation Act 2001 to exempt non-profit making voluntary sporting organisations from the requirement to pay water rates; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [34071/07]

Water charges are levied by virtue of Local Government legislation and not the Valuation Act, 2001. As Tánaiste and Minister for Finance I have no role, therefore, in relation to the setting of water charges.
