11. To ask the Minister for Environment, Community and Local Government when he plans to implement the recommendations of the national rural water services committee and provide a special funding mechanism to grant aid new group water schemes which were in the pipeline for delivery in certain disadvantaged rural areas but which lost out upon the cessation of CLÁR funding and which, under current funding rules, are not viable for delivery because of funding shortfalls, leaving affected households without a proper water supply and in limbo for a number of years, and in the case of County Mayo, the current rules mean that none of the 2015 grants of €400,000 from his Department can be spent.
