The local inspector is now preparing an estimate of costs based on the information received from the group. I can assure the Deputy I will not hold up the scheme as soon as the figures come to me.

How long has the scheme been with the Department? It is holding up the supply of water to 137 houses. The water is very badly needed during the summer months and I regret the Minister did not see fit to approve the scheme earlier.
