University Hospital Waterford is postponing all elective procedures for a 24 hour period.

The hospital says this is due to difficulties experienced in the public water supply from one of Waterford's reservoirs.

It adds that the move is only a precautionary measure.

The hospital says it is hopeful that within 24 hours, there will be a restoration of the full water supply.

It adds that the water supply should be to the required clinical standards "allowing for the full resumption of all services" tomorrow.
