Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform

The channel in question does not form part of an arterial drainage scheme completed under the 1945 Arterial Drainage Act. I am advised that the Office of Public Works has no maintenance responsibility for the erosion of the channel bank at this location.
