asked the Minister for the Environment, in view of his statement in Wexford recently where he has agreed to provide £7 million towards the provision of a drainage scheme, when this programme will commence; if he will give details of the proposed programme and the time span for each phase; and if he will make a full statement on the matter.

I recently approved in principle the Wexford main drainage proposal. A number of technical aspects of the proposed scheme have to be cleared up before the necessary contract documents can be prepared. I am not in a position at this stage to indicate when the scheme will commence or to give details of possible phasing of the programme of works.
