Uninsured homes are ‘fire hazards’ after floods
Speaking at a public meeting with members of the cross-party Oireachtas Committee on Environment, city centre dwellers said despite the flood waters receding they are continuing to live a nightmare.
In a joint statement to the 15-strong visiting political group, representatives of the Middle Parish residents explained that “some people have been pushed to settle fast at a low pay-out” by insurance firms who insisted higher claims would be “fought all the way”.
