A reply has issued to the correspondence in question. The position is that the West Donegal Regional Water Supply Scheme, of which Rathmullen is one element, is included in my Department’s Water Services Investment Programme 2010 - 2013 as a scheme to advance through planning during the lifetime of the Programme. Donegal County Council has submitted proposals to my Department for a large number of “advance works” on the scheme, including works to improve the water supply in Rathmullen, in advance of submitting the full Preliminary Report for the overall scheme to my Department for approval. The “advance works” proposals are under examination and a decision will be made as soon as possible.
