Paul Connaughton Snr (Galway East, Fine Gael)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to debate the following urgent matter: the severe flooding around the country with the consequent huge scale of financial losses to householders, businesspeople and farmers and if the Government will state clearly if compensation by way of humanitarian aid will be made available to persons whose properties have failed to get insurance cover because of previous flooding claims and if humanitarian aid will be made available to families whose houses have been flooded and who may be waiting for five to six weeks or more for insurance claims to be processed.
