I hope someone is inspecting Phil he seems to be full of more shit than any septic tank…..

Ah sure we have plenty of money to pay that .

Well said Declan Crowe once again the rural/urban divide rears it’s head. We live in the country as a choice yes for the quality of life it gives. We look after our own water and waste ie sewage bins recycling etc.. In urban areas you turn on a tap hey presto water you flush the toilet hey presto it’s gone no worries… You dont have to worry about your water pump seizing of breaking. Our a kid putting a full roll of jacks paper down the loo and having to unblock it. As Declan said your shit goes to treatment plants that my tax has paid my tax has paid its share for all public amenities too so make this fair as everyone in Ireland uses sewage treatment make everyone pay €50 then I’ll pay but I’m not paying twice….

Is this man actually capable of telling the truth,or is everything that comes out of his face complete waffle?

What a load of shite.

will the inspections include leinster house more shit there than anywhere else

Sign up and we’ll make the rules up later. Tell us about the grants Phil! Please note that T&C apply to this comment.

The EPA have no powers… FACT, they pass on the info to the lcoal councils who invariably do *ukc all…. A local guy spread slurry 50 meters from my house three weeks ago, it was lashing rain, water had settle like a lake on that field for month before , there is a stream ( now dead) next to the said field, also the roads were like India in monsoon season…. I complained to EPA, they told me they were powerless and that the council would deal with it…. Did they? No.. Why? Because the councils are made up in some areas with part time farmers… What a kip we live in.

I spent almost €6000 installing a septic tank and Pura Flow system plus another €3500 on a well for my water. I have no other houses within half a mile of mine I have my water tested every year and it’s clean. My local council have all the details of my sewage system and can have a free water any time they want but I will not pay €50 for them to have uncontrolled access to my property. Big Phil can kiss my swingers for it!!!!

only 4 percent of pollution comes from septic tanks the other 96 p c comes from treatment plants.here where we live all the sewage from towns and villages runs straight into rivers and beaches and some of the ones that do have a treatment plant when there is a days rain the treatment plant becomes overflowing and all the raw sewage ends up in fields. its time hogan sorted this out as this is where most of the pollution is coming from but sure that would be too much work for him to do so he hits the soft targets.

Hogan using bully boy tactics trying to make people feel guilty about this unjust tax,his cronies have no bother paying out the vrt fine that the eu sanction on us every year though

Anyone entering my property without my permission is trespassing….

I didn’t spend 10k fixing a system it was a requirement of my planning to do so!!!

So no I wont pay anymore to them..

@Bilbo the biggest culprit polluting our water ways are the local councils pumping all their waste into rivers and the sea.. Some of it UNTREATED… So make them pay……

How is it we were given planning for these tanks & had to pay for tests to comply with this planning. Pay the fines phil or do what the UK is doing & tell the EU to f##k off.

@Bilbo doesn’t matter whether it’s €5 or €50 it will not stop there. Let’s just see how many good systems fail in order to create income for the state. It will turn out like the NCT changed from every 2 year’s to annually for cars of a certain. Like driving tests too.. We will get the same response sorry your tank has failed and later that evening while having a wee drop of home brew in my local shebeen with the rest of my broke neighbours we find out that 3 out of 4 have failed and the 1 tank in the area that is pipes to a water source has passed. I am sticking to my guns on this as I did with the household charge. I pay prsi, PAYE, usc, tolls, vat, car tax, bins, where do u want me to stop and my wife pays all the above as well……

when you get the property tax for next week wipe your arse with it then cut your finger and write this is my blood youl get no more and return to sender ok people of ireland WAKE UP ARE YE COWARDS

We should default and leave the eu, as it is not in our interest to be in it anymore, I did not register, so am not paying the fine either, a good stretch in jail would be nice, at least I know that I would be fed well.

are we not already being fined for councils poluting rivers with low standard sewage systems?

has anybody followed up on phil hogans debt to the portaguse government for non payment of approx 10.000euros in charges for his holiday home in portugal

Let Phil pay it out of his inflated wage …

To those who haven’t paid: you are costing your fellow citizens 12k a day.

sorry – i don’t want to pay that and I resent that you are forcing us to.

get out your checkbook or we’ll send down some concrete to put your tank out of action. if you can waste 12k a day on fines, we’ve a right to shut down your sewer causing the fine.

What gives EPA authority to fine us?

As per usual we pay for those who will not pay.

Your argument that the State inspecting your tank is unconstitutional is bogus.

From Propertypin:
In 1921 the feudal ownership of 26 counties of Ireland was transferred from Britain to the Irish State, and this system remains in place today. The Irish State is in effect a feudal landlord and nobody in Ireland owns their own property.

Quote:
“Tenure is a feudal concept, first introduced in England after the Norman’s occupied the country following the battle of Hastings in 1066, was introduced in Ireland after 1172, when the Normans occupied that country. Under the tenurial system all land is held from the monarch. When the Irish State was founded in 1921 the feudal rights of the British Crown were transferred to the new state. This means that all any person or legal body in Ireland owns is an ” an interest in an estate in land, in fee simple.” If freehold it is held ” in possession absolute”. If a lease it is held “for a term of years or lives”. No person in Ireland actually owns land itself. That belongs to the state.

-Kevin Cahill

In 2004 the Irish Law Reform Commission,recommended that tenure, the system under which land is owned in Ireland, should be abolished.

What ever was gained this week by Noonan is given away by hogan. Typical.

He’s like the rest of full of crap and I’m not just talking about the goverment!
