Cork council seeks flood scheme timelines

A number of Cork county councillors expressed concerns about further hold-ups to flood-relief programmes for Bandon, Skibbereen, and Glanmire.
Cllr Alan Coleman (Ind) led the charge, outlining what had happened in two of the towns. In 2009, he said, Bandon suffered serious flooding and both the previous and present governments had promised that money was ringfenced for prevention works.
