Call for abolition of Uisce Éireann over ongoing discolouration of water in Cork

Continuation of problem, mostly affecting city's northside, now 'intolerable', councillors told

'The longevity of the issue is seriously affecting residents, who have demonstrated extraordinary patience but who cannot depend on the water that comes from their taps,' Green Party councillor Oliver Moran said.

Uisce Éireann is under fire again for ongoing discolouration of the drinking water supply to homes in Cork City.

Green Party councillor Oliver Moran has criticised a decision not to issue a boil water notice for a problem that has been ongoing for about 18 months, affecting residents mostly on the city’s northside.
