Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 14 February 2024
81. Deputy Brian Leddin asked the Minister for Transport to report on the progress made by the steering group to advance the flood mitigation works at Ballycar; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [7093/24]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy is aware I previously met with my colleague the Minister of State with responsibility for the Office of Public Works, Patrick O’Donovan, to discuss the complex issues in relation to flooding in the Ballycar area. At that meeting it was proposed to reconvene meetings of a previously established steering group to continue discussions. The group was to be comprised of representatives from the Office of Public Works, Clare County Council, Geological Survey Ireland and Iarnród Éireann. I have not received a report from the group as regards progress to date.
