The Askeaton Sewerage Scheme, which is being advanced as part of a grouped project that also involves Athea, Foynes, Glin and Shanagolden, is approved for funding in my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2005-2007. My Department is awaiting submission of Limerick County Council's Preliminary Report for the project.

A proposal to provide wastewater facilities at a number of locations in south Donegal, including Killygordan, was ranked as sixth priority by Donegal County Council in the list of water and sewerage schemes submitted by the Council in response to my Department's request to local authorities last year 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 priorities adopted by the members of Donegal County Council will be taken into account in the framing of the next phase of my Department's Water Services Investment Programme.
