Irish Water metering costs
Senator Brennan questions the €100 million metering cost overrun and demands accountability for inaccurate estimates.
I would like to be associated with the congratulations extended to Katie Taylor by my colleague, Senator Eamonn Coghlan. To be the best in the world at anything for five years in a row is a magnificent achievement.
On Irish Water, on which there will be statements today, given that metering costs have overrun by €100 million to date, by what amount will they have overrun by the time all of the metering work is completed? Whoever was responsible for estimating the costs involved should be sacked. I will speak about the issue later.
