707 Mr. Timmins asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government the situation regarding the provision of a sewerage system for Arklow, County Wicklow; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [20614/02]
The Arklow sewerage scheme is included in my Department's water services investment programme 2002-2004 as a scheme to commence construction in 2004. The grant of planning permission for the proposed sewage treatment works is currently the subject of High Court proceedings and a third-party appeal to An Bord Pleanála. Further progress with the scheme is dependent on the outcome of these proceedings.
