asked the Minister for Local Government whether it is intended to provide a suitable water supply for the people living in Kellystown, Ticknock, County Dublin; what method it is proposed to adopt; and when the work is likely to commence.

I am informed that Dublin County Council are considering the provision of a public piped water supply for the Kellystown, Ticknock area. As there is no proposal as yet before my Department, I am not in a position to state the method of supply or the date of commencement of the work.
