582 Mr. J. Breen asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government the position in relation to the Doolin and Liscannon sewerage schemes; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [38702/06]

The Doolin Sewerage Scheme, which is being advanced as a grouped project with schemes for Ballyvaughan and Corofin is included in my Department's Water Services Investment Programme 2005-2007. Clare County Council's updated Water Services Pricing Policy Report and Economic Review for the project, which were received last month, are being examined in my Department and are being dealt with as quickly as possible. The Liscannor Sewerage Scheme is also being advanced as part of a grouped project (involving Ennistymon, Miltown Malbay and Spanish Point) and is included in the Investment Programme to commence construction in 2007. The Council's Preliminary Report and Water Services Pricing Policy Report for the scheme are also under examination in my Department and are being dealt with as quickly as possible.
