Minister for the Environment and Local Government (Mr. Dempsey)

I propose to take Questions Nos. 332 and 333 together.

I approved Kildare County Council's tender recommendation for the Castledermot sewage treatment plant on 2 July 2001 and it is now a matter for the council to advance the works to construction. Contract documents for the collection system are currently under examination in my Department.
