Bandon traders to protest in Dublin about flood defences
Business owners, counting the cost of the recent poor weather, have hit out at government measures for flooding.
Traders and locals joined the clean-up operation in recent days, but, after multiple floods since December, they are tired of waiting for action. Sixty businesses in Bandon have signed a petition threatening to withhold payment of local authority rates from June 1, if flood-protection works have not begun by that date.
