Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 17 September 2026
246. Deputy Conor Sheehan asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage if the Water Supply Project Eastern and Midlands Region (Shannon Pipeline Project) will be structured as a Public Private Partnership (PPP) or procured wholly by the State. [66261/26]
View answerUisce Éireann is wholly owned by the State. It receives income from the State and from water charges imposed on non-domestic customers and new connection charges.
Uisce Éireann does not use a Public Private Partnership (PPP) model for capital investment. Uisce Éireann’s capital investment programme including the Water Supply Project Eastern and Midlands Region (Shannon Pipeline Project) will be funded by the Exchequer and its own resources as outlined above.
