With Irish Water still a major bone of contention, talks have once again broke for the evening without agreement.
It is understood that the much hated utility wasn’t even discussed today. Mr. Coveney said “We didn’t talk about Irish Water because it’s a complex technical issue as well as a political one. We needed to take advice from water experts to ensure that anything we potentially agree actually works.”
“We’ll get that advice this evening and discuss it late tomorrow morning when we meet again.”
It is understood that Fianna Fail have hardened their stance on water charges, now saying that Irish Water must be scrapped and water charges done away with.
The deadlock continues.
