On the completed scheme in Kilkenny city, which I praised the OPW for and I gave the agency enough trouble on it when the matter was before the Committee of Public Accounts, I often look back on the video of that project being completed. It is a must-watch video for anyone in the engineering world or anyone who wants to see how the project worked out. There have been small issues afterwards and the Minister of State mentioned some of them earlier. I wrote recently to the Minister of State about a mill stream just off the scheme at Green's Bridge. I understood that, normally, in the past, the OPW cleared it. Then there are the weirs.

Who is responsible for the cleaning of weirs?
