I propose to take Questions Nos. 608 to 615, inclusive, together.

These schemes are approved for funding, either individually or as part of grouped projects, in my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2005–2007. My Department is awaiting submission of Kilkenny County Council's Design Review Report for the Gowran / Goresbridge/ Paulstown Scheme, and of Preliminary Reports in the other cases. The estimated cost of each scheme is as follows:

Callan / Graiguenamanagh / Thomastown / Inistioge Water Supply Scheme — €8.2 million,

Ballyragget / Clogh / Castlecomer / Urlingford / Johnstown Water Supply Scheme — €4.9 million,

Mooncoin Regional Water Supply Scheme — €3.6 million,

Bennettsbridge Water Supply Scheme — €3.6 million,

Kilkenny City Regional Water Supply Scheme — €8.9 million,

Gowran / Goresbridge / Paulstown Water Supply Scheme — €4 million.
