While the local community acknowledges the excellent work done and being done on an ongoing basis by Mayo County Council, from the point of view of restoring infrastructure, there is strong local criticism of what is perceived, rightly or wrongly, as a lack of urgency or action at Government level. People feel they have been left in limbo. They do not know what, if any, Government funding will be forthcoming. They want to know if there will be compensation for agricultural losses. They want to know if those who have returned to their houses which are damaged will be compensated. They want to know if interim payments will be made to assist those who have no incomes because of this catastrophe. They want to know when a final report will be available assessing the full extent of the damage. That is the reason I look forward with eager anticipation to the reply from the Minister of State.
