Vol. 361 No. 1

Written Answers. - County Donegal River.

141.

asked the Minister for Finance the steps being taken by the Board of Works to prevent the recurrence of flooding in the Ballybofey/Stranorlar area by the River Finn in County Donegal.

The Commissioners of Public Works could undertake drainage works in this area only in the context of a comprehensive scheme under the Arterial Drainage Act, 1945, for the entire Finn catchment. Having regard to existing commitments and pending the outcome of a review of arterial drainage policy which is currently under consideration I cannot say when a drainage scheme for the Finn might be undertaken.
