Mr. Maurice Buckley:

The money is to be used for 118 individual flood protection schemes all over the country which have been identified by the catchment flood risk assessment and management, CFRAM, programme. Some 50 of those schemes have been prioritised and will get going straight away. Mechanisms are in place to ensure we can work with local authorities, and we are working to increase our capacity to deliver those schemes. Each situation is being addressed, and very detailed information is available on floodinfo.ie. The Deputy can visit that site and look up County Galway, Galway city or any other area she is interested in and view a list of all of the schemes in place, where they are and what is involved.
