Kildare County Council submitted a report in January 2003 to the Office of Public Works, OPW, in relation to flooding at Ardclough. In subsequent discussions, my officials in the OPW advised the council that the report required more technical detail as well as cost-benefit analysis and an environmental assessment before the matter could be fully assessed further. The submission of the information is awaited.
