Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - County Sligo Water and Sewerage Scheme.

19.

asked the Minister for Local Government if he is aware of the urgent necessity for a water and sewerage scheme in the village of Ballintogher, County Sligo; and what steps are being taken to provide such a scheme.

I am aware of the necessity for a water supply and sewerage scheme for Ballintogher. I approved contract documents for a temporary water supply for the village last month. A permanent supply is envisaged in proposals for a regional scheme which is at an advanced stage of planning.

In January last I approved of the appointment of a consulting engineer for a sewerage scheme. I understand that a preliminary report has been prepared and is at present being examined by the council's technical advisers.
