Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government (Mr. Cullen)

Southern section B of the Firies-Scartaglin regional water supply scheme has been approved for construction under my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2003-2005. The contracts documents for the scheme submitted by Kerry County Council are under examination in my Department and will be dealt with as quickly as possible.
