Tánaiste Simon Harris has warned that there is a “significant chance of further flooding” across Ireland in the coming days following devastating weather in parts of the country last week.

The National Emergency Coordination Group (NECG) met on Sunday afternoon as fresh weather warnings for Monday were issued for nine counties by Met Éireann.
