Seymour Crawford
Ceist:647 Mr. Crawford asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government details on the success or otherwise of the number of pilot sewerage schemes in Meath and elsewhere last year that were introduced by his predecessor; his views on whether the present level of grant aid towards private sewerage schemes such as at Ballinode, County Monaghan, is totally inadequate; if he intends to extend the pilot schemes to other areas or increase the grant aid available; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
