Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Shannon Drainage.

31.

asked the Minister for Finance what progress has been made by the Office of Public Works in the drainage of the Shannon in the Dowra area; and if drainage work will start soon on the river Bonet which was the cause of much damage to farmers throughout North Leitrim.

The Commissioners of Public Works have no proposals for the drainage of the Shannon in the Dowra area. A scheme for the Bonet catchment is under consideration but it is not possible at this stage to say when drainage works might be commenced.
