David Stanton (Cork East, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I thank the Ministers and the Government for the reaction to our community in east Cork. It was fast and really welcome. Many people have lost everything. The issue I want to raise relates to spending. Many cars were damaged on the streets because of this unprecedented flooding. Many valuable cars were damaged, some beyond repair. Some had no insurance cover. Will the Government provide some form of assistance there? Cars are very valuable. Also, there are some private bridges and some private property, apart from houses and business, that also need assistance.
