The campaign group which is spearheading objections to the single largest investment in flood defences in the history of the state is taking a complaint to the European Commission over Ireland’s approach to flood defences.
Save Cork City's (SCC) complaint against the Minister for the OPW and the agency’s drainage department includes references to “the actions of the executive” of Cork City Council and to the €150m Lower Lee flood relief scheme (LLFRS).
