Mr. Dempsey Mr. Dempsey

Minister for the Environment and Local Government (Mr. Dempsey): I propose to take Questions Nos. 201 to 203, inclusive, together.

I recently approved these schemes for funding under the rural towns and villages initiative.

I have approved Clare County Council's proposal to update the preliminary report for the Feakle sewerage scheme so as to take account of changes since the last report was prepared. I understand that the council's proposals for advancing the schemes in Ballyvaughan and Corofin will be submitted to my Department shortly.

I am not in a position at this stage to indicate when these schemes will commence, however I can inform the Deputy that, as the money has been allocated for these schemes, there will be no delay in approving proposals to advance them.
