I do not have those but I can get them for her. I can provide some examples in correspondence to the Deputy. For instance, we can consider what might have happened in Mallow, Fermoy and Clonmel in the absence of flood relief schemes. We can extrapolate based on the storms in Munster in the middle of last year. Those three towns would definitely have flooded in the absence of the schemes. We can do an extrapolation of that. It is an exercise that would take a bit of time but we can certainly do it and give the Deputy back the numbers.
