Scrap water charges

MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

Monday, November 10, 2014

MOTION NO.27

MOTION: Councillor F. Timmons

That the Councillors of South Dublin County Council calls for the scrapping of the Water Charge. We acknowledge this is a charge on a Basic Human Right and do not condone the charging and taxing of a Human Right.

REPORT:

Irish Water is the now the Water Authority for all matters associated with water and foul wastewater in Ireland. Queries from individual councillors are dealt with via the dedicated Local Representative Support Desk which has been set up for this purpose. For this reason, if a councillor wishes to progress a query, we would ask that you advise him/her to submit same directly to the Local Representative Support Desk where it will be dealt with appropriately. This can be done via email localrepsupport@water.ie or calling 1890 278 278 and asking for the Local Representative Support Desk.

If the motion is passed the terms of the motion will be forwarded to Irish Water and the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government, when received, a copy of the reply will be circulated to the Members.
