I provided the Deputy with details of applications approved up to 31 August 2016 for Galway County Council (GCC) under the Minor Flood Mitigation Works and Coastal Protection Scheme in my reply to Parliamentary Question No. 614 of 16 September, 2016. Since that reply, a further two projects have been approved under the scheme and are set out in the following table.
