I fully appreciate and acknowledge the extremely difficult and distressing situations that certain homeowners in Donegal are facing on account of damage to the structural integrity of their homes . Following my recent visit to a number of the affected homes, my Department has received a number of test reports that had been commissioned by several homeowners to ascertain the particular cause of the problems. These test reports are currently being reviewed by my Department and a technical report is being prepared in the matter. It is anticipated that the technical analysis will be available for my consideration by the end of this month.
