The CRU has today, 15 April 2019, published its proposed decision on Irish Water’s Non-Domestic Tariff Framework which will apply to Irish Water’s non-domestic customers. The purpose of the Framework is to generate a harmonised suite of tariffs for non-domestic water and wastewater customers. A more harmonised approach will benefit Irish Water’s customers in terms of transparency, simplicity and equity.
This proposed decision follows a 10-week public consultation on Irish Water’s proposals for a new Non-Domestic Tariff Framework, from 20 June 2018 to 29 August 2018. The CRU received 32 responses from a wide range of stakeholders and interested parties. After careful consideration of the comments received and stakeholder engagement, the CRU has come to a proposed decision on the Tariff Framework and associated non-domestic tariff rates.
This CRU Proposed Decision paper is drafted to inform affected customers and interested parties of the CRU’s proposed decision and provides stakeholders with another opportunity to provide input prior to the CRU reaching a final decision on the Tariff Framework and non-domestic tariff rates.
In addition to the publication of the CRU’s Proposed Decision Paper, the CRU is also publishing a Response Paper which summarises the comments received to the consultation and provides a CRU’s response, Irish Water’s Customer Information Paper and each of the non-confidential responses received to the consultation.
Stakeholders have recently requested that the consultation on the CRU’s Proposed Decision on Irish Water’s Non-Domestic Tariff Framework be extended to allow for additional time to respond. As a result of this feedback, the CRU has decided to extend the consultation period by one week. The consultation will now close on 20th of May 2019.
