I propose to take Questions Nos. 611 and 612 together.
Responsibility for the administration of my Department’s Rural Water Programme, under which funding is provided to recoup local authorities the grants they pay in respect of domestic waste water treatment systems, is devolved to the local authorities.
Details of the grant amounts recouped by my Department to local authorities in 2014 and to date in 2015 are set out in the following table. No recoupments were made in 2013.
