Billy Timmins (Wicklow, Renua Ireland) | Oireachtas source

My question refers specifically to a flood relief scheme for Arklow in County Wicklow. This project has been in the ether for a couple of decades and lay on the shelf during the lifetime of the last Government. In fairness, however, the current Government has resurrected it. I am conscious that €400 million has been allocated for flood protection works in the capital programme announced in the last few days. What is the prognosis for the scheme in Arklow? Can we have an update?
