Michael Collins (IND), Cork South-West

Ballinspittle in west Cork was hit by flooding last night, with a number of businesses and residential properties affected. I thank members of the local fire service and emergency services who bravely saved many businesses and private properties last night. This is the second time the village has been hit by flooding in recent times. The owner of WILD restaurant woke up this morning to find his premises completely flooded. Owners of businesses and private properties in Ballinspittle need urgent assistance. Will the Minister announce in the Dáil today an extension to the flood support scheme for Ballinspittle?
