On RTÉ’s News at Six last evening environment correspondent George Lee in the wake of Storm Chandra made strong criticisms against Wexford County Council for not playing a more active role in protecting properties.
He went on to explain that the council had ample information beforehand, which had it been made public before the flooding, could easily have ameliorated the damage that the storm caused. They were surprisingly strong criticisms for an RTÉ journalist to express.
On the same programme a Wexford County Council engineer was interviewed; her performance would not have given much hope or confidence to those whose properties have been inundated, or indeed, to those whose properties are at risk of being flooded over the next 48 hours.
