Irish Water now a disaster!!

A former minister who helped establish Irish Water has criticised the company's approach to introducing water charges, describing it as an unmitigated disaster Ex-junior environment minister Fergus O’Dowd, who developed the legislation which set up the utility, said it had abjectly failed in selling its message to consumers.
In an unprecedented attack from a Government TD, Mr O’Dowd said: Irish Water has come across as arrogant and uncaring, demanding money and demanding PPS numbers without properly explaining why all of this is necessary.
