Flood Risk Management
Dail Éireann — 2023-10-24
============================================================

James O'Connor (FF), Cork East

I support Deputy Stanton. We have worked in tandem on having a one-stop shop service to help households and businesses that have been flooded. We need the Department of Social Protection to work with the local authorities and other State agencies, which will be needed to get houses back up and running. I thank the emergency services, volunteers and community around east Cork. What they have done is phenomenal. Our Defence Forces, community welfare officers and charitable organisations are working in the area to help households and businesses. All three of us, along with the Minister of State, are indebted to them for their work and we thank them.
