Deadline day for Water Conservation Grant registration

Today is the registration deadline for Irish Water customers who want to avail of the Government's €100 Water Conservation Grant.

As of last week, Irish Water said roughly three out of 10 households still have not signed up.

The utility said it is expecting a last-minute rush to register.

Anti-water charge campaigners are urging even those who have already registered not to pay their water bills.

Anti-Austerity Alliance TD Ruth Coppinger said that a boycott could force the next Government to scrap Irish Water.

"Within the next nine months, there will have to be a new Government in place," she said.

"That Government will come under huge pressure is a huge number of people have been boycotting the bills, it will put them under pressure to abolish the hated Irish Water and the hated water tax."
