View answerThere are a number of housing estates across the country – including a number in the village in the details supplied - that rely on Developer Provided Infrastructure (commonly called DPI) for their water services. These estates have not been taken in charge and their water services are not connected to the Uisce Éireann network.
In June 2023 more than €3.3 million of capital funding was approved pursuant to my Department’s Multi-annual Developer Provided Water Services Infrastructure Resolution Programme for Cork County Council to deliver the project that will resolve the issues with the DPI in the location named.
I understand that the most up to date position regarding this project is that, the technical teams of Cork County Council and Uisce Éireann are currently working together on their collective approach to the project and are discussing the preparation of a Memorandum of Understanding which will allow timelines for the project be finalized and agreed.
