The OPW are currently undertaking works in the Mornington area, some of which are on behalf of Meath County Council. However, none of these works are in relation to Eastham Court, Bettystown.

Meath County Council have indicated that there may have been some flooding in Eastham Court approximately one month ago, however, this appears to relate to drainage issues that are not the responsibility of the Council nor are these local drainage matters the responsibility of the OPW.

My officials have asked Meath County Council to follow up on this matter and if any further information becomes available I will inform the deputy.
