May 31st 2011, Croke Park Convention Centre, Dublin

In these times of major uncertainty, one decision has been made - domestic water charges will be introduced.

For reasons of structural fiscal reform - we have to broaden the tax base - as well as for sound environmental reasons, domestic water charges will be introduced by 2013. The decision was sealed in December 2010 under the EU/IMF deal with Ireland and water charges feature in the new Programme for Government.

That doesn’t leave long for the national roll-out of domestic water meters to get underway, with an estimated investment of €600m, as a national priority over the next 2 years.

Organised by iQuest, the inaugural National Water Metering Summit is a timely high-level one-day conference that will provide a forum to contribute to defining the national strategy on water metering.
