I welcome the delegation. Will the Minister advise if the Office of Public Works has a plan for the future? There are many projects in the pipeline and new towns are being included every year as there seems to be more and different areas of flooding every year. Has he taken the impact of climate change into account? For example, what plan does the OPW have for the next 20 years during which time more towns will be flooded, or does it have a plan for the future other than a plan covering works for the towns that have been flooded?
