74. Deputy Martin Browne asked the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications the progress made on addressing the risks posed by public water supplies in the Environmental Protection Agency's drinking water quality in public supplies report for 2023; the improvements made in addressing the long-term resilience and safety with reference to environmental pollution of supplies in County Tipperary; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I have no function in relation to this matter, under section 7 of the Water Services (No. 2) Act 2013. Public water supplies are a matter for Uisce Éireann. Since 1 January 2014, Uisce Éireann has statutory responsibility for all aspects of water services planning, delivery and operation at national, regional and local levels.
