425. Deputy Seán Canney asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage when an application (details supplied) for funding under the remedial action list RAL will be decided; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10669/24]
View answerMy Department provides funding to improve the quality, quantity and reliability of the water services relied upon by rural dwellers, where Uisce Éireann water services are not available.
In relation to the group water scheme referred to I understand that funding has been approved to carry out water treatment improvements and that the relevant local authority continues to work with the scheme to put a sustainable solution in place.
I can confirm that it is open to group water schemes across the country to make applications for funding to my Department under the Multi-annual Rural Water Programme 2024-2026. Applications can be made through the relevant local authority which must be received by my Department by the closing date of 12 April 2024.
