Final vote on the report of the water committee deferred until Tuesday

The committee agreed that a debate on the report would go ahead in the Dáil on Wednesday and Thursday next week

The committee voted 15-5 to allow for the delay so that Fine Gael could seek its own legal advice on the report. 

The Senior Counsel to the Committee says the changes made to the report do not put it outside the EU water services directive. 

Political Correspondent with the Sunday Business Post Hugh O'Connell says it's not clear who Fine Gael will seek legal advice from.
