Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 1487 to 1489, inclusive, together.
My Department has had a number of discussions with the Office of Public Works about this project. I understand that the revised OPW work programme to alleviate flooding in the Roundfort-Hollymount area is close to completion and that it will be sent to my Department for review as soon as it is complete.
The commencement date for the works in question is a matter for the Office of Public Works.
