The act would create one agency to oversee the management of the Shannon water systems.
The lack of co-ordination around the administration of the River Shannon means "the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing".

The act, which would create one agency to oversee the management of the Shannon water systems, had previously featured on the summer and autumn lists in 2021 but wasn't enacted.
