I propose to take Questions Nos. 878 and 879 together.
My Department does not compile the information sought. Each local authority is responsible for the administration of the Domestic Waste Water Treatment Systems (septic tank) Grant in their area and each have a Rural Water Liaison Officer who is best placed to provide the information requested.
The officer can be contacted at the local authority offices – Meath County Council in this instance.
