Seanad: Response to Storm Éowyn: Statements (26 Feb 2025)

Joe Conway: The Minister of State is welcome to the Chamber. I will give a tiny bit of historical perspective to this debate on Storm Éowyn. Looking around the Chamber, I do not think anybody else here is venerable enough to remember Hurricane Debbie in the middle of September 1961. I do. It was a ferocious storm. I remember standing in the clump in our front garden watching mature beech, oak...
