Vol. 506 No. 2

Written Answers. - Water and Sewerage Schemes.

Michael Ring

Question:

304 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government the position regarding the Shrule sewerage scheme in County Mayo; the money allocated for the scheme in 1999; and when the scheme will be completed. [15123/99]

Design drawings and specifications for stage 2 of this scheme were submitted to my Department in 1990, but have not been approved. As the scheme is not included in the 1999 water and sewerage services investment programme, it comes within the terms of my Department's circular letter L9/98 of 22 October 1998. This circular asked each local authority to undertake a fresh assessment of the needs for capital works in its area and to prepare a prioritised list of projects based on the assessment. The priority lists will be taken into consideration by my Department in framing future water and sewerage services investment programmes under the next national development plan 2000 – 2006.
