I propose to take Questions Nos. 637 and 643 together.

Drumcollogher and Pallasgreen, along with Hospital and Bruff, are being advanced as part of a grouped sewerage scheme that has been approved for funding under my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2007-2009 to begin construction in 2009. Athea, Askeaton, Foynes and Glin Sewerage Schemes are part of a separate grouped scheme that is also approved for funding under the Programme, with a 2009 construction start. My Department is awaiting submission of Limerick County Council's Preliminary Reports in both cases.

I refer to the reply to Question No. 982 of 2 April 2008, in relation to the Kilmallock Sewerage Scheme.
