Denis Naughten (IND), Roscommon-Galway

I refer to motion No. 152 on the Order Paper. I seek the Taoiseach's direct intervention in the humanitarian crisis facing eight families in Ballagh and Lisfelim in the area of south Roscommon. Along with six of my colleagues from across the country, I have tabled a motion seeking the establishment of a cross-departmental and cross-agency task force to address emergency climate adaptation measures to protect homes nationwide.
I ask the Taoiseach, as the Head of Government, to establish a national task force to take on this role. It should set as the first item on its agenda the authorisation of the flood alleviation works at Lough Funshinagh in County Roscommon and use that as a case study.
