View answerA study carried out by the Office of Public Works has identified works that will alleviate the flood risk in the area referred to. These works will be undertaken in conjunction with Limerick and Clare County Councils using their statutory powers, which will require the carrying out of a public consultation process. The timing of the works will depend on the successful completion of this process and the need to accommodate environmental constraints. It is expected that works will commence in the autumn.
