Vol. 476 No. 2
131 Mr. Dempsey asked the Minister for the Environment if he will approve as a matter of urgency the Kylebroughlan, Moycullen group water scheme, County Galway, in view of the fact that water from some wells in the area are unfit for human consumption and the scheme has had approval since 1991. [6734/97]
As already announced, responsibility for the administration of the group schemes programme is being devolved to the local authorities, subject to existing commitments on foot of approvals issued by my Department. Where schemes have not yet been approved, including the Kylebroughlan scheme, it will in future be a matter for the local authorities to decide grant applications.
