139. Deputy Cathal Crowe asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage if he will provide an update on the release of funding for upgrades to a group water scheme (details supplied). [47361/22]
View answerMy Department’s Multi-annual Rural Water Programme, through Exchequer funding, delivers improvements to water services in areas of rural Ireland where there are no public water services.
A working group – the Rural Water Working Group - is considering the composition of the measures for inclusion for funding under the upcoming multi-annual programme. Once I have had an opportunity to consider their report, I expect to announce details of the programme priorities. An invitation, to all local authorities including Clare County Council, to submit bids will follow later this year.
