Details of the new household charge, which will be €100, have been announced.




It is expected a number of low-income households will be given a waiver from the charge.



Both the Taoiseach Enda Kenny and Environment Minister Phil Hogan had promised clarity on any household charge before the summer recess.



The service charge is to be a combined water and property tax and will be set in the region of €100 a year, until schemes for charging for water and a property tax are introduced.



The EU/IMF bailout dictates that an interim charge must be put in place for water, beginning next year.
