Dr. Edmond O'Reilly:

The situation on Inis Mór in Cill Rónáin is quite a complex one. We have an existing agglomeration, which is an area within which we have assets such as a sewer network, pumping stations and a treatment plant. The specific one on Inis Mór in Cill Rónáin is quite small and covers a specific part of the settlement in Cill Rónáin. We are now looking at what else is involved from that settlement’s perspective. We understand that there are existing assets within the village itself. We are exploring these with Galway County Council and trying to understand what is there, in the first instance, and what options are there then. It is very early stages with regard to assessment and it is very difficult to put any timeline on it. We are dealing with all of the usual issues with a project but the fact that we are working on an island off the coast makes it even more of a complicated project to deliver. Certainly, it is something we are looking at.
