Irish Water has 11 weeks to decide plea in EPA case

Irish Water has been given 11 weeks to decide how it will plead to failing to implement a plan to improve drinking water quality in Carraroe in Co Galway.

The utility is being prosecuted by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

The case was listed before Judge John O’Neill yesterday at Dublin District Court where an adjournment was granted. A solicitor for the EPA told the court that there was consent to the case being put back to September.
