Anne Rabbitte (Fianna Fail)

I thank both groups for being with us this afternoon. Coming from the west, I acknowledge all the work the witnesses' organisations did during Storm Éowyn. However, people living in Dunmore in County Galway, which is just 40 miles north of where I live, had to wait for 41 days for their connection back to the ESB. They felt very forgotten about. What plans are in place in the event of a repeat of Storm Éowyn? Will a generator be left in Dunmore? People on the Aran Islands were better served than people on the mainland when it came to reconnection. All that the team in Dunmore is asking is to have a generator to reconnect to the system. Are plans afoot for that in the ESB?
