The Hall Redman Concept Study was commissioned by the Commissioners of Public Works in May 1987 to consider the National Museum's premises and collections at Kildare Street with a view to identifying those areas in need of renovation and redesign and outlining a methodology for the exhibition of collections.
The 1987 study has been superceded in the light of the provision of new National Museum infrastructure, for example, at Collins Barracks and by a number of reports undertaken as a result of the work of the interim board and the caretaker board of the National Museum. I, therefore, have no plans to update the study referred to by the Deputy.
