14 Kathleen Lynch asked the Minister for Enterprise and Employment the progress, if any, made with regard to the Cork office of the Director of Consumer Affairs; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13638/96]
I refer the Deputy to my reply to Question No. 9957 on 16 May 1996 (Volume 465 (No. 5), Cols. No. 1354-1355).
I am informed that the director will take possession on 1 july 1996. I have asked the director to take the necessary steps to open the office on South Mall to the public at the earliest possible date and, in any event, not later than the autumn of this year.
I am aware that it is the intention of the director to arrange for the construction of a ramp to allow for and enable wheelchair access prior to the opening of the office to the public.
