The Clonmel Flood Relief Scheme is broken into three separate phases. The first phase, the Clonmel West Scheme, which is costed at €21.2m, has been confirmed by the Minister for Finance and works have already commenced on this scheme. OPW will be inviting tenders, later in 2008, for the appointment of a consultant for the detailed design of the Clonmel North Scheme and when this has been confirmed by the Minister for Finance and works have commenced, the Clonmel East Phase will be proceeded with. Provision has been made for the implementation of all three phases within the Office of Public Work's budget for flood relief activities.
