Garretstown sewerage scheme notifications
Boland asked how far from Garretstown residents were notified about the sewerage scheme. Burke said he was pleased to inform interested people about the scheme and criticised the previous Government for delaying its sanction.
I do not mind getting them because at least it confirms that what I have been working for for years is coming to fruition. In relation to the Garretstown sewerage scheme, which caters for about 200 houses in the quarter of a mile long village, will the Minister say within what radius of the village he notified people that there was to be a sewerage scheme provided for them?
Comment on this
The difference between the Deputy and myself is that when the Deputy's party were in Government they sat on this sanction for this scheme for so long that it waited until we were in power. It gives me great pleasure, as Minister for the Environment, to notify people who would be interested with regard to the sewerage scheme.
