The Rochfortbridge sewerage scheme was approved for funding under my Department's water services investment programme, 2004-06, under the serviced land initiative, at an estimated cost of €4.3 million. The Department approved Westmeath County Council's contract documents for the scheme in June 2004 and is awaiting the submission of the council's tender recommendation.

The Headford sewerage scheme has been approved for construction in my Department's water services investment programme, 2004-06. Galway County Council's tender recommendations for the civil works and the treatment element of the scheme, which is being procured as a design build operate contract, are being examined in the Department and will be dealt with as quickly as possible. The council may proceed with the work after the tender recommendations have been approved.
