The Leitrim towns and villages sewerage scheme, which includes Roosky, is approved for construction under my Department's water services investment programme 2004 to 2006. I approved Leitrim County Council's contract documents for the sewage collection systems for all of the locations included in the scheme on 30 September 2005 and it is a matter for the council to invite tenders for these works. The council's tender documents for the waste water treatment facilities, which are being procured as a grouped design, build and operate contract, are under consideration in my Department and are being dealt with as quickly as possible.
