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

As part of the Templemore Flood Relief Scheme works at the location concerned are planned upon completion of the works within Templemore Town Park.

Due to delays beyond the OPW's control and the ongoing poor weather it now seems unlikely that these works will be completed in 2023, as originally planned.

The OPW's current programme is to have works at the location concerned complete and the lands ready for hand back by end of Q2 2024.
