To date ninety three (93) of the houses in the estate in question have been sold and it is hoped to dispose of the remaining seven (7) houses at the estate as soon as possible. The roads, footpaths, street lighting and other services at the estate will have to be brought up to the required standard before they will be taken in charge by Kildare County Council. In this regard, the condition of the services concerned is under review with a view to reaching an agreement with Kildare County Council in the matter.
