Residential water-charge legislation

Summary

Deputy Cowen asks when legislation governing residential water bills and arrears will be available; the Taoiseach confirms it will be introduced this session.

The Taoiseach has said on past occasions that the first residential water bills will relate to next autumn and will be dropped in the doors the following spring with reference to arrears for the autumn period. When can we expect to see legislation to give effect to that whole process so that its relevance is adequately scrutinised and analysed?
