Responsibility for drawing up proposals for the improvement or extension of existing wastewater schemes, or the provision of new wastewater schemes, rests with the local authorities who are designated as water services authorities under the Water Services Act 2007. Accordingly, any proposals are a matter for Cork County Council, the Water Services Authority for the area. No proposals have been received in my Department for the scheme referred to in the Question. The Deputy may wish to follow up on the matter directly with the Council.
