The Barraduff and Kilcummin sewerage schemes are part of the Lough Leane catchment sewerage scheme which has been approved for construction under my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2004-2006 at an estimated cost of €4.9 million. My Department is examining additional information recently received from Kerry County Council on the preliminary report for the Barraduff scheme and this will be dealt with as quickly as possible. Additional information requested by the Department on the preliminary report for the Kilcummin scheme is awaited from the council.
