At a recent committee meeting, we discussed the HSE buying an existing home for long-term residential care that flooded in the past 18 months.

I am aware of a development of 2,500 units just outside Midleton. Midleton has flooded significantly on ten occasions since 1993 and, yet, 2,500 units are being built at Water Rock. There is irony to the name. I am trying to get to the bottom of whether the OPW is actively engaged. Every person in this room who represents a constituency could point to the construction or purchase of buildings that have been flooded. I am trying to understand the interaction of the OPW - the agency responsible - in this regard.
