David Stanton (FG), Cork East

Three months ago, almost to the day, Storm Babette hit the country, affecting in particular my own area in east Cork. I thank the Minister, her Department and the community welfare officers, CWOs, for all the help they have given to households.
It has been really appreciated and they have been very good, as have the Department of enterprise and the Irish Red Cross, for businesses. However, the issue of road funding remains and I understand that the county council sought up to €50 million in support. When will the Government be able to release some of that funding to the county council in order that roads, some of which are still closed, as well as bridges, can be repaired?
