Previous Day
16:42 More than two thirds of primary schools have already been billed to pay water charges, a survey by the Irish Primary Principals' Network (IPPN) has found. The IPPN, which represents primary school principals, carried out an online survey of more than 300 schools last Friday. Nearly half of the schools surveyed said they had received a bill of up to €2,000, just under 12 per cent have received bills of between €2,000 and €5,000, while 6 per cent have been billed for amounts in excess €5,000. Some 66 per cent of schools said they could not afford to pay the charges.
