Answer
This is an operational matter for NI Water; however, I have sought the relevant information.
NI Water has advised that the potential costs to mitigate against any outlay that can be attributed to the wildfires is currently unknown and may not be confirmed for some time.
These costs will need to be met from NI Water’s 2025/26 budget allocation, once agreed.
For any future queries relating to operational matters, you should contact NI Water directly through the Elected Representatives Hotline on 0345 300 6461 or through waterline@niwater.com.
Making direct contact with NI Water will ensure that you receive the information in the shortest possible timeframe and make best use of limited public resources.
