Good to see Gareth Wilkinson UTV Live News covering the severe impacts of the Irish defective blocks crisis where internal sulfate attack has ruined 1000s of homes. I was happy to discuss the latest science we are doing confirming the role that pyrrhotite is having on Donegal homes

As the local elections approach, homeowners affected by the mica crisis in Co Donegal say their physical and mental health has been seriously impacted, alongside their crumbling houses

'Only 61 homes fixed out of more than 8,500 damaged by defective blocks in seven years' clearly the scheme is not working😡 independent.ie/irish-news/onl…

Eoin McGrath, Geological Survey Ireland Dept. Environment, Climate and Communications is at #ICISR in Quebec, and brought together all attendees funded by Gov. of Ireland to study Irish defective aggregates. We are working with Department of Housing, Local Government & Heritage to ensure the best scientific research is available to all stakeholders.

A 76 year old man, in tears, broken. This is the reality of what is happening on the ground Darragh O'Brien

No more hiding. No more waffle from the department reps saying we dont have data on how much people are out of pocket. It's your mess Fianna Fáil Fine Gael. Fix it

I can't believe at times I have to start this at some point in the near future on my own home, this nightmare should never have happened and I can tell you now most people can't even do this because of the complications & financial shortfalls of the grant scheme 😪

#ICISR was such a brilliant meeting. It brought a large international science team together to share their latest insights on pyrrhotite & internal sulfate attack occuring in defective Irish homes & iron sulfide risks in Irish aggregates Geological Survey IE Department of Housing, Local Government & Heritage Geography and Environmental Sciences

I'm looking forward to chairing the final session of #ICISR2024 which kicks off with a talk from Andreas Leemann on internal sulfate attack in count Mayo

RTÉ News Theresa Mannion reports from #Donegal about the harsh reality of being caught in the #defectiveconcretecrisis . Homeowners' testimonies expose the truth that this catastrophe is far from sorted. Broadcast is believed to be 6pm RTE1 News TONIGHT. Many thx to all involved.

The first session of day 2 #ICISR2024 is on the mechanisms of iron sulfide reactions...a Really important session on understanding the fundamental mechanism that's destroying homes across Ireland, USA, Canada

Now more than ever it is imperative that we all use our voice, one way of doing this is by voting.

I am a MEP who prioritises small family farms, a just transition, Irish neutrality, Gaza, Carers, fishing rights, 100% redress for victims of defective concrete, and last but not
