My Department continues to monitor the situation in relation to the flooding of farmland in general and farmyards where it arises.

The Department instigated a feasibility study for a scheme for the voluntary relocation of farmyards. This work is being carried out within the terms of the Inter-departmental Flood Policy Group and will be concluded shortly.
