      The water protests is one of the most counterproductive things people ever did.

      Whole estate where I live wasn’t able to open to new owners due to issues with the water supply. Finished houses empty for months until the water got sorted.

      More of a failure of the planning process but still. It’s a limited utility.

      The country has so much cash it doesn’t know where to spend it, this is an easy fix, just needs a minister to sign off a spending plan. Hopefully this is just irish water calling out with a louder voice to be heard.

      We’ll have all manner of these issues as we ramp up supply. Irish Water do seem notably inefficient though, think its a decent part due to the dodgy workforce they inherited from the councils. A lot of those are thankfully retiring now.

      Uisce Eireann caused the housing crisis?

      Even when it was the immigants I knew it was them

      Can’t even supply the ones they already have.
      Look at this week half of one of the wettest counties without water in midwinter die to creaking, in adequate, poorly maintained infrastructure.

      Give them the money to hire more staff and buy more materials and that solves the problem. Is it not as simple as that??

      Who’d have thought that there would be supply issues with a utility service that was ignored and under funded by local authorities for years. They’re only reporting drinking water supply issues as a future problem because not being able to cater for water water from our existing houses is already a problem. So many towns can’t expand because local waste water treatment plants can handle the extra demand

      So that’s why we’ve been limiting the supply of new houses, Ireland’s well known water shortage 🤣
      I knew there was a logical reason.

      You’d think a place as rainy as Ireland would be a bit better about holding onto water. 

    11. I was told this earlier this year by a neighbour who works in Irish water. I was a bit skeptical as I would have thought it had been news had it been the case but I guess he was right!

      > **”Deliberate lack of adequate government funding preventing supply of water for new homes.”**

      FTFY.
