Vol. 436 No. 5
114 Dr. Upton asked the Minister for Finance if he will give details of the rent paid to the Office of Public Works in respect of the leasing of board premises to private individuals for restaurants or heritage purposes for each county-administrative area.
I am unable to supply details of rent paid in respect of the letting of premises at heritage sites because of the commercial nature of the operations involved, whereby concessions are let on the basis of competitive tendering.
