Flood Risk Management
Dail Éireann — 2023-05-11
============================================================

Colm Burke (FG), Cork North-Central

In fairness, I think everything has been done by the Department. As the Minister of State outlined, the matter comes under the remit of Cork City Council. We must make sure that a timely decision is made by the council to award the contract and that the person who gets it accepts it in a timely manner in order that we will not have to go back out to tender at a later stage.
This is a vital project for the Glanmire area. Very little has happened there because of the wait for the scheme to be put in place. We and the city council need to give priority to signing off on a contract and then getting the work itself done.
