Christopher O'Sullivan (Cork South West, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I want to raise an issue on behalf of the people of Shannonvale, a small village near my home town of Clonakilty, who have been campaigning for years to get back their children's playground. The playground is located beside a wastewater treatment plant and at the moment there is raw sewage and excrement coming up through the surface. When I first came into this Dáil in 2020 I raised this issue but I have gotten absolutely nowhere since. I plead with the Tánaiste to use the powers of his office to intervene to ensure that Uisce Éireann builds a proper, functioning wastewater treatment plant for the people of Shannonvale so that the families and children there can get their playground and park back. The people of Shannonvale would be very grateful if the Tánaiste could assist them.
