CIR 05/22 | Water Services Corporation Online Portal – Update

Following the publication of Circular CIR 02/22, the Council has had a meeting with the Water Services Corporation to discuss to iron out the liability and security issues present in its online portal.

With satisfaction, we wish to inform members of the profession that the portal was redesigned and is now live.

CIR 02/22 is thus hereby repealed.

Periti may wish to proceed with the submission of WSC clearance requests using the newly redesigned portal.

We take this opportunity to thank the WSC management and technical staff for their swift action.

CIR 02/22 | Water Services Corporation Online Portal

 

The Council has been informed that the Water Services Corporation has launched an online portal to deal with requests for clearance in relation to permit conditions. Such clearances would be used to support requests for compliance certificates from the Planning Authority.

The portal, which makes use of the e-ID login, requests from periti the uploading of a standalone scanned copy of the permit perit’s signature and that of another perit or warranted engineer, where applicable.

This is clearly unacceptable for several reasons which require little to no explaining to those who possess a basic understanding of the liability and security risk implications such a system poses.

Periti are hereby advised not to utilise this portal, until it is redesigned to eliminate such risk implications.
