Once again, I thank Senator Lombard for his comments and insights on this minor works relief application for Ring village submitted by Cork County Council to us in the Office of Public Works. I know the work to date that Senator Lombard has done on this in terms of campaigning for it with the local residents and obviously with his colleagues locally, Councillor John O'Sullivan and Mr. John Michael Foley, who is the local candidate in that area. As I said, I assure the Senator that as soon as the necessary information is received from Cork County Council - that is, the follow-up information to enable a complete assessment by the OPW for this particular application for a minor works scheme and further relief works for Ring in west Cork - the assessment will be done as soon as possible by officials in the OPW.
