Mr. Kenny
Silting has always been a natural feature in the River Moy at this part. The Commissioners of Public Works are obliged under the Arterial Drainage Act, 1945, to maintain this stretch of channel as an effective drainage outfall for the Moy drainage scheme and this they propose to do. They have no other proposals in the matter.
