Drinking Water<br />
The council considered the following motion from <strong>Council</strong>lor Byrne:<br />
To ask the council if it will rev<strong>ie</strong>w the policy of adding fluoride to drinking water, given the fact<br />
of high levels of dental hyg<strong>ie</strong>ne and the weight of evidence of the negating health effects of<br />
this chemical on consumers and that the cost of this chemical treatment be provided to<br />
members.<br />
The meetings administrator presented a report to the members from Water Services<br />
Department stating that water fluoridation is public health policy in Ireland to aid in the<br />
prevention and management of tooth decay. This policy was rev<strong>ie</strong>wed in 2000 and the main<br />
conclusion of the rev<strong>ie</strong>w was that fluoridation of public piped water suppl<strong>ie</strong>s should continue<br />
as a public health measure. The report also set out the capital and operational costs. The<br />
members acknowledged the report and sought clarity on costs involved. Mr Boland set out<br />
the breakdown of the costs involved and confirmed that same is recouped from the Health<br />
Service Executive.<br />
