This scheme has been approved to advance through planning in my Department's water services investment programme, 2000-02, as a grouped reedbed project that also involves Labasheeda and Cooraclare. I approved Clare County Council's brief for the appointment of consultants to prepare a preliminary report for the project in January 2001 and the submission of the report by the council is now awaited.

I have approved Broadford sewerage scheme for funding under the rural towns and villages initiative. An updated preliminary report for the scheme is awaited by my Department from Clare County Council.
304 Mr. Killeen asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government the position regarding the Quilty-Mullagh sewerage scheme; when work is expected to commence; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6785/02]
This scheme is approved for construction under my Department's water services investment programme, 2000-02. I approved the preliminary report for the scheme in November 2000. My Department is currently awaiting the submission by Clare County Council of a revised brief for the appointment of a client's representative for the wastewater treatment works, which will be procured as a design-build-operate contract in conjunction with Feakle and Scariff sewerage schemes, and for the appointment of consultants for the sewerage systems.
