RESIDENTS worst hit by last November’s devastating flood in Cork city last night demanded a public inquiry into the disaster.

A WIDE-RANGING investigation into the November floods crisis may not make specific concrete conclusions on who is to blame for the €100 million damage caused to Cork city.

Cork's city manager Joe Gavin has rejected claims that he blamed the ESB for the devastating floods which hit the city last November.

WHEN ESB officials attend the Oireachtas Environment Committee this afternoon, they could be forgiven for focusing only on the politicians throwing questions their way.
