CRU/19/091 Irish Water Revenue Control - Revenue Control 3 (2020-2024) Closing Date 11th September 2019 Submission from Clare County Council Introduction Clare County Council welcomes this opportunity to comment on the document in particular under the following headings. 1. Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme. 1.1 Discharge licensing. 1.2 Rural Water Programme. 1.3 Development Plan. 2. Developer Provided Infrastructure (DPI). 3. Capital Programme Irish Water Investment Plan 2020 to 2024. 4. Recommendations. 1.0 Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme For County Clare the issue of un-sewered towns and villages is of great concern. It is preventing housing developments, commercial interest and growth of communities in rural villages and towns which is having a negative social and economic impact and leading to further depopulation in these settlements. Under Irish Water’s “Investment Plan 2020-2024 for CRU Review Appendix 2B-Stakeholder Engagement Feedback from Stage 2 “ (pages 104/105) they have elaborated on their proposals with regard to the Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme. Extract from Appendix 2B-Stakeholder Engagement Feedback. “Small Towns and Villages Growth Programme Feedback from respondents on this theme included the following: Welcome for the clarification provided that the Programme was not restricted to agglomerations above 500 PE; Concern with the response given in the Draft Investment Plan on the use of Rural Regeneration Development Fund of the NDP to provide wastewater capacity in un-sewered villages; Respondents stated their view that the proposed funding allocation methodology, based on the wastewater treatment capacity register for plants above 500 PE, would not be fair to all counties as it doesn’t consider capacity deficits in plants below 500 PE; and 105 | Irish Water | Investment Plan (2020 to 2024) for CRU Determination The importance of balanced regional development and attention to investment requirements in rural towns and villages. -

The Shooting of Tom Shannon, Forgotten Hero of the War of Independence in West Clare
The Shooting of Tom Shannon, forgotten hero of the War of Independence in West Clare By Eoin Shanahan Tom Shannon's mortuary card (Source: Michael Shannon,Moyasta) On April 7th 1921 The Irish Times carried a report from Dublin Castle on the killing of a respected West Clare farmer and Sinn Féin magistrate named Tom Shannon. The report stated that Shannon, who had served as a magistrate in the popular Sinn Féin Courts, had attempted to distance himself from Sinn Féin when he found himself in disagreement with court methods. Furthermore, the Castle claimed that he had refused to pay local Sinn Féin rates - the inference being that the killing had been carried out by fellow republicans.1 To this day, this exercise in propaganda has not been effectively challenged. The shooting Forty-year-old Tom Shannon farmed a substantial holding at Moyasta, where he lived with his wife Bridget. On Sunday night 13 March 1921 he took a lighted lantern and went outside to the cabin to tend to his cows. Meanwhile, Bridget undressed and went to bed. At about 21.30 Bridget heard the dog barking and the footsteps of what she believed to be two men passing through the stone stile at the front of the house. The subsequent knocking on the front door would go unanswered for up to ten minutes until Tom returned to the house. His repeated calls for his visitors to identify themselves were met with demands that he open the door. The voice from outside asked “Are you Mr. Shannon?” He answered “Yes” and he was again ordered to open the door. -
