We have the schemes, but they are microscopic compared to the size of the village. They are legacy issues that Uisce Éireann inherited in a variety of ways, including court cases.

Obviously we will be expecting the Department to provide money. It would take considerable money to put a new sewer into Kilronan. It would cost a lot less money to just upgrade the existing infrastructure. Would a little present help Uisce Éireann or encourage it to undertake the work?
