Donegal County Council submitted a report to my Department in June this year, in relation to damage caused by flooding to regional and local roads in the Gweedore area. An official from the Department's Roads Inspectorate visited the site of the flooding to evaluate the extent of the damage. As an exceptional measure, and in view of the particular circumstances of the Donegal flooding, funding of €130,000 has been provided to Donegal County Council, for works approved by the Roads Inspectorate.
