337. To ask the Minister for Health the reason the Health Service Executive has failed to issue public notices to homes served by public water supplies containing Trihalomethanes, warning them not to give such water to young children, in view of the fact that parents are advised by the Executive to use cool boiled water rather than bottled water for babies; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

This is a matter for the HSE, therefore I have referred the question to the HSE for attention and direct reply. If you have not received a reply from the HSE within 15 working days please contact my Private Office and they will follow up the matter with them.
