The Rathowen Sewerage Scheme is included in my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2007-2009 as a scheme to advance through planning at an estimated cost of €1.9 million.

My Department is examining correspondence received from Westmeath County Council in February 2008 in relation the level of Exchequer funding required for the scheme and will respond to the Council as soon as possible.
