Written answers

I assume that the question relates to the Newmarket sewerage scheme. The Newmarket scheme, which involves the upgrading of the existing waste water treatment plant and sewage collection system, is included in my Department's water services investment programme 2004-2006 to commence planning at an estimated cost of €3 million. Cork County Council's design brief for the appointment of consultants to prepare the preliminary report for the scheme was approved by my Department last month.

Dinny McGinley

Question:

434 Mr. McGinley asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government the position regarding the proposed sewerage scheme for Killybegs, County Donegal; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [32334/04]

View answer

The Killybegs sewerage scheme is included in my Department's water services investment programme 2004-2006 as a scheme to commence construction in 2005 at an estimated cost of €17.2 million. The submission of a water pricing report by Donegal County Council is awaited to enable my Department to finalise its consideration of the preliminary report for the scheme.
