Ciarán Lynch (Cork South Central, Labour)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to discuss an issue of national importance and concern, namely, the measures being taken by the Government to deal with the consequences of the disastrous flooding in Cork city in recent days, which has led to some 18,000 homes being without water supplies, the steps being taken to ensure the urgent restoration of those supplies, particularly in the context of health and hygiene, the steps that are being taken to establish the causes of the severe flooding in Cork and to ensure that adequate preventative measures will be put in place for the future.
