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

Seven weeks ago, Storm Babet hit east Cork. The following day, the Taoiseach, the Ministers, Deputies Coveney and Ryan, the Tánaiste and other Ministers came down to offer support but now we need a lot of money. At least €50 million is needed to fix the roads, many of which are still not open and are impassible. There has been a lot of support for businesses and homes, and we are very thankful for that, but the roads need work. Will the Taoiseach talk to the Departments of transport and housing regarding urgent funding to get that work done and also to speed up the flood relief scheme?
