Question:237 Mr. E. Kenny asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry the square footage of office space occupied by his Department in Davitt House, Castlebar, County Mayo; the reason no facilities exist for discussions in any degree of privacy with farmer applicants for agriculture grants and subsidies; when the offices occupied by his Department were last painted; the reason the foyer at the entrance to Davitt House was converted for storage use; the reason he has not directed that the offices of his Department be open for longer periods to deal with public claims and queries; when he last visited Davitt House, Castlebar, County Mayo to see the problems being experienced by staff there at first hand; and if he will make a statement on the matter and have arrangements made to have improvement works carried out forthwith.
