Vol. 248 No. 9

Ceisteanna — Questions. Oral Answers. - Dublin Sewage Disposal.

74.

Mr. Belton

asked the Minister for Local Government if he will examine the feasibility of acquiring incinerators similar to those in use in Germany for the disposal of sewage with a view to minimising pollution of Dublin Bay.

Dublin Corporation is at present engaged in the design of a new treatment works which, together with other major drainage works in progress or in planning, will remedy to a considerable extent any existing pollution problems in Dublin Bay. I understand that disposal of sewage at sea is the method universally used in coastal cities.
