The Macroom sewerage scheme was included as a proposal for the period 2007 to 2012 in the list of water and sewerage schemes submitted by Cork County Council for its southern division in response to my Department's request to all local authorities to undertake fresh assessments of the needs for capital works in their areas and to prioritise their proposals on the basis of the assessments. The assessments were taken into account in the framing of the Water Services Investment Programme 2004-2006 published in May 2004. Having regard to the rating afforded to the scheme by the council, it was not possible to include it in the programme.

My Department has no application from Fingal County Council in this case nor was such a proposal included in the most recent list of water and sewerage schemes submitted by the council in response to the Department's request to all local authorities to undertake fresh assessments of the needs for capital works in their areas and to prioritise their proposals on the basis of the assessments. The assessments were taken into account in the framing of the Water Services Investment Programme 2004-2006 published in May 2004.
