asked the Minister for the Environment when work will commence on the Lismore sewerage scheme, County Waterford.
Written Answers. - Lismore (Waterford) Sewerage Scheme.
370.
Contract documents for the Lismore sewerage scheme have been submitted to my Department by Waterford County Council and are under consideration at present. The question of approval to the contract documents must be considered in the context of the amount of capital available for sanitary services schemes and the large number of such schemes in progress or getting to construction for which adequate finance must be provided. In the circumstances, I cannot say at this stage when I will be in a position to convey a decision on the Lismore scheme to the local authority, or when work on the scheme will commence.
