Vol. 423 No. 1

Written Answers. - North Mayo Flooding.

Enda Kenny

Question:

333 Mr. Kenny asked the Minister for the Environment if he will allocate special funding in respect of flood damage caused by very severe rain falls in the North Mayo area in early September, 1992; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The Memorandum on Road Grants, 1992 which issued to all road authorities earlier this year indicates that the cost of remedial works arising as a result of flood damage must be met from discretionary grants. The 1992 discretionary grant allocation notified to Mayo County Council amounts to £3.987 million. Road grants have been fully allocated in 1992 and there are no funds at my disposal from which an additional allocation could be made to Mayo County Council this year.
