That was just resolved last October and the Deputy knows that. The scheme is now with Irish Water and I will make inquiries to see what we can do to advance that scheme, as will Deputy Stanley. My Department has had a limited amount of resources for the past few years and hopefully the model we are introducing now will give us additional resources to try to make sure that the legacy issues in places like Emo, Portarlington and Mountmellick can be resolved. Hopefully we will be able to get the capital funds from the markets to get the job done.
