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 South Tipperary. The Water Conservation Stage 3 Works: Advanced Network Rehabilitation – Fethard Regional Water Supply Scheme Phases 1 and 2 are included in the Programme as contracts to start over the life of the Programme. Work on the Mullinahone watermains is included under Phase 1 of this scheme. My Department recently approved the Council's design proposals and a construction stage budget of €8.1 million for both phases of the scheme. It is now a matter for the Council to prepare contract documents for these works.
