Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform

I am advised 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 area. It is currently envisaged that this mapping will be completed in Q3 2023.
