Manus Boyle (Fine Gael)

I thank the Minister of State for his answer. There is an onus on the OPW and Donegal County Council to get things moving. It is a massive issue in Donegal. This is only the tip of the iceberg. These people's houses in Inver are within five metres of their gardens going into the sea. It is important we get moving on it. A stitch in time saves a lot of money. We should put in the rock armour now and get it done before there are any more storms. That will give the people in the houses reassurance. The children in the houses will know that, when they go to bed at night. their gardens will not be gone in the morning. I went there after, I believe, Storm Éowyn. I saw the waves cracking in and the water coming onto the windows of the houses. It was scary. Donegal County Council and the OPW really need to get moving on this. Hopefully, when the Minister of State goes back to the other Minister of State, the latter will make a call to Donegal County Council to find out what is going on and whether we can push it on.
