I raise the issue of the flood relief scheme in my home town of Enniscorthy. The Government committed to deliver the scheme in 2014, almost 11 years ago. People and business owners living beside the Slaney are constantly apprehensive and on the alert, especially in winter time and high-tide season. We were told that funding was ring-fenced in 2014. However, to date no progress is forthcoming. I ask the Taoiseach, who is well aware in his own county of the disruption and financial hardship flooding causes in people's lives to ask his Ministers to deliver the scheme, which is long overdue and to fulfil the promise given 11 years ago to the people and town of Enniscorthy.
