I propose to take Questions Nos. 1412 and 1466 together.

Schemes to extend the Lough Mask Regional Water Supply Scheme from Shrah to Westport and to Louisburgh are included in my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2007-2009. My Department conveyed approval to Mayo County Council for the invitation of tenders for the Louisburgh and Westport extensions in May and October 2007, respectively. I understand that the Council is currently examining tenders for both schemes.
