Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 10 March 2021
314. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform if drainage works in Ballyduff, County Kerry will be extended to include a location (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [12536/21]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe Office of Public Works (OPW) is responsible for the maintenance of Arterial Drainage Schemes completed under the Arterial Drainage Act, 1945.
The fields and channels referred to by the Deputy are outside the bounds of the Feale Catchment Drainage Scheme and therefore do not form part of the Arterial Drainage Scheme under the auspices of this office.
The OPW has no maintenance responsibility at that location, nor the authority to carry out any works there.
