Cork County Council has included the Group Water Scheme in question in its application to my Department for funding under Measure 3 of the new Rural Water Multi-Annual Funding Programme for the period 2016 to 2018. My Department is currently considering local authorities' bids for funding for group water and group sewerage schemes and allocations to authorities for funding under the new programme will be provided shortly.
