The Kinvara sewerage scheme is included in my Department's water services investment programme for 2004 to 2006 as a scheme to start construction in 2006. Galway County Council's revised preliminary report for the scheme, which was submitted to my Department earlier this month, is under examination and is being dealt with as quickly as possible. Once the preliminary report has been approved, the council will be in a position to prepare contract documents.
