A preliminary report has been submitted to my Department by Dublin City Council setting out an outline of the scope of regeneration proposals for the Charlemont Street flats, including the Tom Kelly flats complex. As this is a preliminary report, the matter will require detailed consideration by the Department, in consultation with Dublin City Council, of the nature and extent of the proposed refurbishment and how it should be implemented in the most cost effective manner. This examination of these major proposals is being advanced by the Department and a decision will be conveyed to Dublin City Council as soon as possible. The question of committing funding to these outline proposals does not arise at this stage.
