asked the Minister for the Environment the proposals his Department have for the extension of a water scheme to Carnmore, Lisheenavalla and Cregmore, County Galway.

The position regarding these group water supply schemes is as follows: The design for the Lisheenavalla group water scheme has been approved by my Department and a copy has been sent to Galway County Council for their approval, if in order.

The Carnmore No. 2 group water scheme was completed in January 1981. Grants totalling £30,600 have been allocated to the Cregmore group water scheme and Galway County Council have been asked to indicate if they would be willing to make a special contribution of £2,858 to the group to cover the cost of increased pipe sizes requested by the council.

I wonder would the Minister indicate that the scheme at Carnmore, mentioned in Deputy Donnellan's question, was completed earlier this year?

That is right.
