‹ Order of Business Constitutional protection for water
Summary
Senator O’Donovan supports a referendum requiring a strong constitutional safeguard for public ownership of Irish Water.
I support my leader's call for a referendum on protecting the right to water. The difficulty for the country and successive Governments is that the public does not trust Governments or what they do. According to Senator Paul Coghlan, it is already the law that we cannot sell Irish Water, but it is not sufficient merely to have a legislative provision.
