Raw sewage is discharged into rivers and streams in every county. Community employment schemes have done great work in rural areas but people continue to move away because proper sewage schemes are not in place. If adequate schemes were in place, other projects such as landscaping, dry stone walling and pavement repair could then go ahead. If schemes are not put in place, the drift from rural Ireland will continue. I welcome the improvements Limerick County Council have made in reviving villages. It now favours public private partnerships.
