In April 2018, on foot of recommendations of a Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Future Funding of Domestic Water Services (JOC), the Minister established a Working Group to conduct a review of the wider investment needs relating to the rural water services. In its report, the JOC recommended that, “the principals of equity of treatment and equivalent financial support should be applied equally between households on public water supplies and those in Group Water Schemes (GWS), Group Sewerage Schemes (GSS), those using domestic wastewater treatment systems (DWWTS) and individual domestic water supplies (IDWS) and that the Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government should conduct a review in consultation with relevant stakeholders “to quantify what additional investment will be required to equalise treatment between those availing of domestic water services and those availing of private services.”
