Restrictions in three areas affecting 70,000 people, while 11 other places are on watch list
The hosepipe ban affecting three areas is the earliest one to ever be issued
Water restrictions are coming into effect as several supplies around the country fall to historically low levels and others are hit by drought conditions.
The prolonged dry spell has pushed Uisce Éireann to introduce its earliest ever “hosepipe ban”, or ban on non-essential usage.
