My Department has received no proposals for an extension of the Ballycastle sewerage scheme to which improvements have been completed under the serviced land initiative measure of my Department's water services investment programme. Neither was such a proposal included in the list of water and sewerage schemes submitted by Mayo County Council in response to my Department's request to local authorities in 2003 to undertake fresh assessments of the needs for capital works in their areas and to prioritise their proposals on the basis of the assessments. The assessments were taken into account in the framing of the Water Services Investment Programme 2004-2006, published last year. In the absence of a prioritised proposal in this case, no provision has been made for it in the programme.
