Question 1827: To ask the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government the position regarding the proposed new sewerage treatment plant for Kinvara, County Galway; if the design build and operate aspect of this scheme will have to be sanctioned by his Department; the role Galway County Council will now play given that the preliminary report has been signed off; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The Kinvara Sewerage Scheme has been approved for construction in my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2005-2007. I approved Galway County Council's Preliminary Report for the scheme last month. Under new procedures I have introduced to speed up progress with the Programme, the Council is now free to advance all the elements of the scheme to construction without further reference to my Department.
