I propose to take Questions Nos. 1742 and 1744 together.
Uisce Éireann has statutory responsibility for all aspects of water services planning, delivery and operation, including the employment of staff, at national, regional and local level. Staffing within Uisce Éireann is a matter for the company and I have no function in the matter.
Uisce Éireann has established a dedicated team to deal with representations and queries from public representatives. The team can be contacted via email to oireachtasmembers@water.ie or by telephone on a dedicated number, 0818 578 578.
