I thank the Minister. Sadly, that was a very generic response and it could probably apply to most counties in Ireland with respect to flooding damage and so on. I am disappointed the Minister did not say that he has spoken to officials in the Department and that they will engage with the county managers of both counties to prioritise this. As the Minister stated, the community has effectively been cut off.There is awful flood damage throughout the country and I commend all the services that are undertaking great work to address it. The Four Masters Bridge and Lennox Bridge in north Leitrim-south Donegal must be prioritised. I hope when the Minister goes back to his office today, he will speak to the Secretary General of the Department and ask him to contact both county managers.
