Chapter 18 - Health Service Executive Funding and Financial Reporting (1 Feb 2024) Brian Stanley: I am going to ask the two Accounting Officers to respond briefly on that. It is an issue that is causing problems for every one of us and it has gone on. None of us would disagree with the Deputy there. We will hear from Mr. Watt first and then Mr. Gloster.

The first item of business is the minutes of our meeting of 25 January 2024, which have been circulated to members. If members wish to raise any matter in relation to the minutes they should please feel free to do so. Are the...

We will note and publish this item of correspondence. No. R2322B is from Mr. David Moloney, Secretary General of the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform, dated...

Brian Stanley: We can seek answers to that. I raise the issue of capital works for flood relief. Item No. 18 in the response refers to Mountmellick flood relief scheme including the timeline and additional funding. It did not answer either of the questions on the additional funding for that. We also looked for a detailed report on Midleton and Rathcormac; I think Deputy O'Connor raised that. It is a...

Brian Stanley: Many of those construction projects have four main stages and a number of smaller stages within those four stages. We are being told six years into it that it is approaching the end of stage 1 for a large town at risk of flooding anytime. It is under the Slieve Bloom Mountains and anytime it rains heavily, three hours later the water flows off the Slieve Bloom Mountains down into the middle...

Brian Stanley: Terrible damage was done in November 2017 in Mountmellick. We should ask the Department what it is doing to try to accelerate these. This is not about pushing environmental regulations to one side. I accept that proper planning, environmental studies and public consultation need to be done. However, there must be a shorter timeline for all this. Deputy Dillon wants to come in. We are...

Brian Stanley: The people in Mountmellick heard in 2018 that there would be a flood-relief scheme and that money was there for it - €3.4 million I think it was at the time. Six years later there is still no flood-relief scheme. We have read today that it is approaching the end of stage 1. While it is not confirmed in this correspondence, the last figure I heard was that it was now going to be in...

Brian Stanley: Perhaps we could suggest the option of the local authority. There is a line of accountability. The reason I say the local authority is that councillors can keep the pressure on it.
