Dara Calleary (FF), Mayo

I join the Acting Chairperson in welcoming the guests from CBS Charleville.
I again thank Senator Scahill. I will bring the pre-2021 models to the attention of my officials. The most important thing is that we are looking at all the lessons we have had to learn from Storm Éowyn, particularly in light of the long period the people were without power and the impact that had on, for example, personal alarms. We continue to engage with telecoms companies regarding ongoing problems with broadband connectivity. That is still a major issue for many areas.
