There's more issues than that. The water quality in many parts of the country is awful (Longford, or where I am in Wicklow for example), and they'd have some bloody cheek to try and charge for it. Also, is the main source of waste actually households, not leakage?
I'd agree about Water Butts - the councils should be operating schemes like they do for compost bins. And they are significantly more expensive here than in the UK.
Another nice stealth tax from the Government that isn't going to increase taxes, except for carbon taxes, water taxes etc. Perfect for FF as well - "it wasn't us, it was the Greens".
