Written Answers. - Kildare Sewerage Scheme.

Alan M. Dukes

Ceist:

150 Mr. Dukes asked the Minister for the Environment if he has considered a proposal submitted to him by Kildare County Council for an improvement in the sewerage scheme for the Brownstown/Curragh/Suncroft/Cutbush areas of County Kildare; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that Kildare County Council is anxiously awaiting approval of the scheme in view of the fact that the current system is unsatisfactory; and whether he intends to approve the scheme.

Minister for the Environment (Mr. M. Smith)

The design brief for this scheme is under consideration in my Department. Having regard to the existing level of commitments under the water and sanitary services programme, I cannot indicate when a decision may be made.
