The role of the Expert Commission on Domestic Public Water Services is to make recommendations on a sustainable long term-funding model for the delivery of domestic public water and waste water services by Irish Water. I am satisfied that the terms of reference for the Commission cover all of the issues relevant to the consideration of the future funding of domestic water services.
