There is no record in my Department of a proposal for a group water scheme at Clogher, Ballyshannon.
As already announced, responsibility for the administration of the group schemes programme has been devolved to the local authorities, subject to existing commitments on foot of approvals issued by my Department. Where schemes have already been approved, such as the Rath-Lisminton scheme, the local authority will issue the grant allocation to the groups as soon as possible. Block grant allocations notified to local authorities on 26 March take into account the commitments made, including £142,000 for this scheme. In addition, an European Regional Development Fund co-financed grant of £100,000 has been approved for the scheme.
