Kevin O'Keeffe (Cork East, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I wish to address the Taoiseach and the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government. A while ago, we heard about people have to climb mountains to survive. There is a crisis on the Lios Ard estate, Ballyhooly, Fermoy, Co. Cork, where having to use buckets to draw water to survive this warm weather. I raise it here because while it has been an issue for the last week, more important, it has been an issue for the past ten years. The residents on the estate cannot be guaranteed a proper supply of water in this day and age. I ask the Minister or the Taoiseach to please intercede in the matter and give them some comfort regarding a resolution to the problem.
