The Water Services Investment Programme 2010 – 2012, a copy of which is available in the Oireachtas Library, provides for the development of a comprehensive range of new water services infrastructure in County Kilkenny. The Castlecomer Sewerage Scheme (SLI) is included in the Programme amongst the list of contracts in the county to start in the period 2010 – 2012.

Kilkenny County Council has recently submitted a proposal to my Department regarding the funding of this scheme. The submission is under examination and a reply will issue to the Council shortly.
