It is very welcome news that this scheme will finally get off the ground. It is welcome also that contractors will be appointed in late January, with construction to commence in February or March. This is a much-needed scheme, the need for which I have outlined. I compliment the engineers in Clare County Council and the OPW on the work they have done to date. I compliment also the outdoor staff of Clare County Council for their work in the interim in keeping houses and public roads free of water.
This scheme is vital. I look forward to its moving to construction early in February or March. I hope that timeline is adhered to and that construction will commence on those dates. I thank the Minister for his comprehensive reply and this positive news.
