A private landowner has been formally told that it is their responsibility to repair a section of damaged Cork city quay wall where two significant collapses have occurred in recent months.

They have also been asked to engage urgently with Cork City Council as it seeks to address the issue affecting the northern quay wall near the historic South Gate Bridge.
