Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform

I am advised by my officials that the consultant appointed to design the Claregalway Flood Relief Scheme is currently producing updated flood maps that represent the flood hazard (post completion) of all flood relief scheme works undertaken in the Claregalway and Carnmore areas. It is currently envisaged that this mapping will be completed and reported upon in the early part of next year.
