There have been numerous discussions between my Department and the Department of Education and Science in relation to water charges for schools, most recently in the context of the government announcement in January 2008 in relation to transitional arrangements which will apply to schools water services over the period 2007-09 as part of the implementation of the EU Water Framework Directive. There have been no recent discussions between my Department and the Department of Health and Children regarding water charges.
