Vol. 567 No. 6

Written Answers. - Flood Relief.

Denis Naughten

Ceist:

62 Mr. Naughten asked the Minister for Finance his plans to extend home relocation in areas of severe prolonged flooding; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [14555/03]

A home relocation scheme was introduced by the Government in 1995 as a one off response to the flooding which occurred in late 1994-95 and the closing date for receipt of applications was 31 December 1998. All funding made available under this scheme has now been expended or is committed and the Commissioners of Public Works have no plans to implement a further home relocation scheme.
