Today Minister @COSullivanTD met the members of @AnForamUisce, where he learned about how the Forum provides at platform for stakeholder engagement in water policy & water management. The first of many meetings we hope.

Minister @COSullivanTD opening the #epawater2025 conference in Salthill this morning, highlighting the importance of scientists gathering water quality data, all stakeholders of water & local action on the ground. "Investment in water quality is key"

Delighted to contribute to the launch of Trinity Water Centre today. Excellent initiative to create a knowledge hub of expertise across all components of water. This will be a key source of expertise for @AnForamUisce to bring science to policy. @tcddublin @EnvDrJohnG

Research by John Gallagher and Laurence Gill @tcddublin commissioned by @AnForamUisce showed that including water efficient showers, taps and toilets in new builds would cost developers approx. €180 yet save the state nearly €10 million in water and wastewater treatment.

Fantastic 1st session at @AnForamUisce conference today presenting the science on how climate change will impact water availability, water quality, public health & ecosystems. @cmurphy2904 @SarahECotterill @palaeo_mich @DrJeanODwyer @kenwhelan0451

Increasing rainfall & flooding results in increases in disease outbreaks in health records, like VTEC & cryptosporidium, a serious consideration for climate change adaption. @DrJeanODwyer at the @AnForamUisce conference #waterclimate24

Contaminants will become more concentrated in our waterbodies during extended dry periods during summer, impacting our water quality & aquatic ecosystems, @palaeo_mich at @AnForamUisce conference today #waterclimate24

"Water conservation should be used as a climate adaptation tool to manage water with future climate change & population growth", @SarahECotterill speaking at @AnForamUisce conference today #waterclimate24
