Brogan welcomes funding for waterways in border communities 

Sinn Féin MLA Nicola Brogan has welcomed a €32 million investment from PEACEPLUS to improve water quality in Lough Erne, Lough Melvin, and Donegal Bay.

The party’s environment spokesperson said:

“This is a welcome investment from PEACEPLUS which aims to improve water quality in Lough Erne, Lough Melvin, and Donegal Bay.

“Funding will also be used to upgrade some cross-border communities’ wastewater treatment which will benefit up to 6,000 people.

“Protecting our waterways and ensuring they can be enjoyed for generations to come must be a priority.

“This is a positive example of NI Water and Uisce Éireann working together for the betterment of people north and south, as well as helping to build a safer, cleaner and greener island.”
