Ms Clare McGrath:

I may not have all the information here but I will revert to the Deputy if that is acceptable.

Consultants have been appointed by Limerick City Council. However, I am unable to provide any further update on that. As I have said previously, a flood relief scheme is very complicated because one is in a river, in an urban setting on land which does not belong to one, so there is quite a complicated and complex series of steps involved. If it is acceptable I will revert to the Deputy directly or via the committee on King's island.
