Btw, isn't it something like 3/4 of Irish homes that won't be metered by the time billing starts? Wonder what they'd do if 75% of the people just refused to engage with them.

S.O wrote: » One of the main reasons people paid paid the property tax was the powers of the revenue, if you don,t pay its taken at source or no tax clearance cert you can,t work, the water charges is different to the property tax is the sense Irish water don,t have the power to deduct from source or to deny tax clearance certs.
Timberrrrrrrr wrote: » No they will just reduce your water supply to the bare minimum.
S.O wrote: » Im not on the water meter yet, as aren,t a lot of others if people in numbers refuse to engage them they won,t have the manpower nor the resources to reduce water supply to a big per % of people, and as i said if they re having trouble fitting water meters they will have a lot more trouble trying to restrict water supplies, some would do well to remember what happened to water workers in the previous anti water charges campaign when they tried to cut off water and they got surrounded and trapped in the van for hours, they didn,t try enter the same areas again.
