€100 charge to inspect water meter for faults

The Commission for Energy Regulation (CER) has said members of the public could face a €100 service charge if they tell Irish Water there is a problem with their water meter.

The CER yesterday issued the Water Charges Plan 2015, which takes into account the revised water charges announced by the Government last November.

The plan also approves a €100 charge that will be applied to some Irish Water customers who report concerns about their meter readings.
