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

The sewerage element of the Killeagh water and sewerage scheme, which is being funded under the Department's water services investment programme 2005-07 as part of the serviced land initiative, has been completed.

Cork County Council's revised preliminary report for the water supply works is being examined in the Department and is being dealt with as quickly as possible. Once the preliminary report has been approved, the council will be in a position to prepare contract documents for these works.
