A new row has broken out over the future of water charges – after Fine Gael accused other parties of backing out of a previous deal.

Last week the major parties agreed in principle to only issue fines or charges to households who use an excessive amount of water.

But Fine Gael has now accused the other parties of voting in favour of language which suggests there will be no charge at all.
