I propose to take Questions Nos. 135 and 136 together.
No proposals have been submitted to my Department in relation to a water scheme for Killala. However, the Killala sewerage scheme is included in the Department's 1999 water and sewerage services investment programme as a scheme to be avanced through planning. The preliminary report for the scheme will be considered further by the Department on receipt of the results of the marine outfall survey which has been requested from the local authority.
