The £15m relief package for flooded businesses is “nowhere near enough”, an MP has said.

Sinn Féin MP for South Down Chris Hazzard, along with party colleagues, met senior civil servants on Tuesday and said repairing the flood damage will take “four or five times” the amount that is currently being offered.
