Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 3 March 2005
218 Mr. Stagg asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government if he will sanction the tender documents for the sewerage and surface water contracts for Straffan village, County Kildare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [7384/05]
Amharc ar fhreagraThese works form part of the lower Liffey valley sewerage scheme which is included in my Department's water services investment programme 2004-2006 as a scheme to commence construction this year. In December 2004 my Department approved Kildare County Council's proposals to proceed with the Straffan element in advance of the rest of the lower Liffey valley scheme with a view to the works being carried out in conjunction with planned road improvements. The council's contract documents for the Straffan works are now under examination in my Department and are being dealt with as quickly as possible.
