421. To ask the Minister for Environment, Community and Local Government if he will request Irish Water to make funding available as a matter of urgency to address the mid-Kerry water supply crisis, where the entire pipe network needs to be immediately replaced, as homes, businesses and farms have been without water for prolonged periods, including the town of Killorglin; if he will direct Irish Water to replace all the old asbestos pipes throughout mid-Kerry; if he will confirm that these pipes that are continuously breaking, are not a health hazard to the consumers in this area; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
