The Milltownpass Sewerage Scheme has been approved for funding under my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2007-2009, as part of the Rural Towns and Villages Initiative at an estimated cost of €2.3 million. Westmeath County Council's Design Review Report for the scheme is being examined in my Department and a reply will issue to the Council shortly. Once this report has been approved the Council will be free to proceed to tender.
