A UK environment committee has strongly criticized Stormont’s failure to protect the water quality of Northern Ireland’s lakes and rivers. Tá cáineadh láidir déanta ag coiste comhshaoil de chuid na Ríochta Aontaithe go bhfuil ag teip ar Stormont caighdeán uisce locha agus aibhneacha Thuaisceart Éireann a chosaint. It was said that the appropriate resources are not in place to protect the rivers, rivers that flow into Loch Eath, which are badly polluted with blue- green algae. Dúradh nach bhfuil na hacmhainní cuí i bhfeidhm leis na haibhneacha a chosaint, aibhneacha atá ag dul isteach i Loch nEathach, atá truaillithe go dona le halgae gorm glas. Lake Eath provides 40% of the water that is drunk in the North and for the second year it is full of blue green algae which endangers the health of people and animals. Cuireannn loch nEathach 40 faoin gcéad den uisce a óltar sa Tuaisceart ar fáil agus don dara bliain tá sé lán le algae gorm glas a chuireann sláinte daoine agus ainmhithe i mbaol. In a report by the United Kingdom’s Environmental Protection Office, it was said that Stormont, which is responsible for protecting the rivers that flow into the lake, is not doing so. I dtuarascáil Oifig um Chaomhnú Comhshaoil na Ríochta Aontaithe, dúradh, nach bhfuil Stormont atá freagrach as na haibhneacha a ritheann isteach sa loch a chosaint, ag déanamh sin. The report states that the goal of improving the quality of the water has been missed and if changes are not made there is a risk that the damage will never be rectified. Deirtear sa tuarascáil gur cailleadh an sprioc chun caighdeán an uisce a fheabhsú agus muna ndéantar athruithe go mbeidh baol ann nach féidir an damáiste a chur ina cheart go deo. Stormont’s Department of Agriculture and Environment has 3 months to respond to the 16 recommendations in the report. Tá 3 mhí ag Roinn Talmhaíochta agus Comhshaoil Stormont freagra a thabhairt ar an 16 moladh sa tuarascáil. There has been strong criticism that Stormont is failing to protect the water quality of Northern Ireland’s lakes and rivers Cáineadh láidir déanta go bhfuil ag teip ar Stormont caighdeán uisce locha agus aibhneacha Thuaisceart Éireann a chosaint
