I propose to take Questions Nos. 281 and 282 together.
A brief for the appointment of consultants for this scheme was approved on 12 February 1998.
283 Mr. Sargent asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government whether proposals or request for funding has been submitted by Sligo County Council in relation to the provision or upgrading of sewage treatment facilities at Rosses Point, County Sligo; if so, the nature and extent of the cost involved; the date on which the application was received; and the action, if any, taken or proposed by his Department. [7071/98]
Cohesion funding was sought in 1994 for a sewerage scheme at Rosses Point as part of the Sligo Bay waste water management scheme. However, approval for the planning of stage 1 of the Sligo Bay scheme did not include Rosses Point. A preliminary report in respect of Rosses Point has not been submitted by Sligo County Council to my Department.

[7072/98]
There are no proposals for a sewerage scheme at Strandhill with my Department. A sewerage scheme at an estimated cost of £1,365,285 was completed in 1993.
285 Mr. Sargent asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government whether proposals or requests for funding have been submitted by Sligo County Council in relation to the provision or upgrading of sewage treatment facilities in areas of County Sligo other than Standhill or Rosses Point; and, if so, the nature, extent, cost and status of these.
