The appointment of directors of Irish Water is a matter for Ervia as set down in the Articles of Association of Irish Water, subject to relevant Ministerial consents. The Board of Directors operates within the relevant legislative requirements, including company law, the Articles of Association and the Code of Practice for the Governance of State Bodies. Irish Water has established a dedicated team to deal with representations and queries from public representatives and has contacted all Oireachtas members to provide details of an improved level of service which it is aiming to provide. The team can be contacted via email to oireachtasmembers@water.ieor by telephone on a new dedicated number, 1890 578 578.
