The inclusion of particular schemes within future operational programmes for Structural Funds purposes does not yet arise. The Donegal town sewerage scheme is still at an early stage of planning and no estimate of a commencement date can be made at this stage.

Question:100 Mr. Deenihan asked the Minister for the Environment if he will provide finance to allow the Rathae/Lyreacrompane water scheme, County Kerry to go to tender to 1993.
Group water scheme grants and contributions from group members are insufficient to finance this scheme which, in consequence, would require a special contribution from the provision for public water and sanitary services schemes. Having regard to the overall demand on the water and sanitary services programme, I cannot say when it may be possible to approve this scheme.

Question:101 Mr. McGinley asked the Minister for the Environment the number and location of group water schemes in County Donegal awaiting approval.
Work is progressing on approximately 22 schemes in County Donegal. Six schemes are awaiting grant approval and a considerably greater number of schemes are at earlier stages of processing. Further details of these schemes may appropriately be sought from Donegal County Council who have devolved responsibility for the administration of group schemes in their functional area.
