Question 358: To ask the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if his attention has been drawn to the plans of Dublin local authorities to undertake a systematic programme of roadside drain cleaning and removal of the mounds of autumn leaves that are clogging up the water drains and also posing a risk to older persons; if he will appeal to householders to display some civic duty by cleaning up the autumn leaves from outside their homes; if he will make contact with the Dublin local authorities to draw to their attention the urgency of this matter; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I have no function in relation to roadside drain cleaning and the removal of autumn leaves by the Dublin Local Authorities, which is a matter for those local authorities.
