I thank the vice chair. On the OPW flood relief capital works programme, ten schemes are ongoing with the council in County Donegal. I refer to the schemes in Ballybofey, Buncrana, Burnfoot, Castlefin, Glenties, Kerrykeel, Lifford, Downings, Ramelton and Raphoe. All of these schemes are badly needed, and it is very welcome that they are ongoing. None of the schemes has progressed past stage 2, which is the planning process or confirmation stage. Can the Minister of State provide an update of the timelines for the completion of these schemes and when he expects them to reach the next stage? If he does not have that information available, can he provide a full, detailed report on the schemes to the select committee?
