Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 18 June 2015
98. Deputy Barry Cowen asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform if he will provide, in tabular form, the total funding of flood defences, by county, for each year from 2008 to 2014 and for 2015 to date. [24367/15]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe OPW has expended approximately €275 million on flood relief activities between 2008 and the end of 2014 with €224.4 million being spent on flood defence works and €43 million approximately on the Catchment Flood Risk Assessment and Management (CFRAM) Programme, hydrometric data collection & processing, research on flood risk related issues and other flood relief programme areas of work. A further €7.68 million was provided to Local Authorities in 2014 for repair of public infrastructure damaged by the severe storms of December 2013 and January 2014. Of the total spent on flood defence works, €197.6 million has been invested on Major Flood Relief Schemes such as in Mallow, Ennis, Clonmel and Fermoy and another €26.8 million on the Minor Flood Works & Coastal Protection Scheme that commenced in 2009, under which the OPW funds more localised works undertaken by Local Authorities up to a maximum of €0.5 million per project. A detailed breakdown by county of the expenditure on flood defences is set out in the table attached. A breakdown by county of the funding of Local Authorities for the storm damage repair works is available on www.opw.ie.
