All your information will be given to whoever buys Irish Water. Ignore it along with myself and thousands of others and we will beat this nonsense.

Im from Balbriggan and I have seen nobody installing any meters and dont know of anybody who has as yet had their water meter installed. How are the first bills for water going to be issued in January 2015 when so few areas across the country seem to have any meters installed? Am i missing something as to why im not hearing such questions being asked anywhere in the media? My next door neighbour has got the letter to fill out but for some strange reason we have not received anything?
