Before calling Deputy Paul Murphy, I want to ask a brief question for clarification. Under this memorandum of understanding with Insurance Ireland, exactly what information is the OPW giving it? I thought the intention was to provide what was basically a map of the country showing places where a requirement for flood works had been identified. This is where I would like clarification. Does the OPW give Insurance Ireland information on areas it has identified where flood defence works are necessary, areas where it has completed flood defence works, or areas in which it is undertaking flood defence works?
