The Government have confirmed that penalties and fines for nonpayment of water bills will continue to accumulate over time, and could amount to €1,140.
These monies will be attached to the property, which means that any attempt to sell the property will necessitate the discharging of such fine. How, or if, this will be enforced remains to be seen.
After yesterday’s announcement of the revamped water charges, deemed by some as a ‘con job’ and ‘introductory offer’, the Government have now resolutely dipped their collective feet in concrete and are about to take a leap of faith into the deep, murky waters of their own twisted perception of democracy.
