Enlighten me, please

While visiting a relative in Bishopstown, Cork, I found myself at 6pm in a estate without street lighting while all other parks in the vicinity were well lit.

Enlighten me, please

In the telephone book, I discovered that the contact number I should phone was 1850372999 and on getting through to the number, a lady at (presumably) Electric Ireland sought first my MPRN number but when I explained that my call related to street (public) lighting, the lady advised that they no longer had anything to do with this, and that I should contact my local authority. I then asked if she might give me a contact number. The lady said she was sorry she was unable to assist. When I said we were senior citizens and had no notification of this new arrangement, I again got the same response. Can anyone enlighten us?
