A protest is planned for next month in Midleton over the delayed roll out of flood defences in the East Cork area almost three years after Storm Babet.
Members of the Midleton and East Cork Flood Protection Group are holding the protest due to what they feel has been a lack of action in improving flood protection measures in the wider East Cork area.
