Of course. The reply is very similar to the response I received in October 2004. There has been no movement whatsoever, and the only commitment the Minister of State has given is that in 2006, if the council once again provides its assessment of water needs, the Government will re-examine the matter. I am bitterly disappointed at the response, since there has been no progress. I continually receive a thesis on what the Government intends for County Limerick, but I would like to see a practical reality at some stage.
