New Irish Water charges in May 2020: Farmers fear big increase in bills
Farmers with fragmented holdings will be hit hardest by rising Irish Water charges next year, according to Irish Cattle & Sheep Farmers’ Association (ICSA) Rural Development chairman Tim Farrell, who predicts some bills will rise as much as 78%.
The new charges won’t come into effect until May, 2020, but Irish Water is communicating the details to business customers currently.
