I have no function in this matter and the information requested is not available in my Department. With effect from 1 January 2014, Irish Water is responsible for public water services.
It should be noted that the existing arrangements for all non-domestic customers are remaining in place with no changes for the time being in line with the Water Charges Plan approved by the Commission for Energy Regulation (CER ). On this basis, the local authorities are continuing to bill and provide services to non-domestic water customers, including schools, as agents of Irish Water.
