A North Kerry councillor says a consultant will be appointed to investigate the cause of recent flooding in Listowel and Killocrim.
In November, over 100 people were evacuated from their homes after the River Feale breached its banks during Storm Bert.
Cllr Mike Kennelly says five families will be unable to return to their homes for Christmas following the damage.
