View answerAll property in the Commissioners of Public Works portfolio is constantly under review. To date the process has produced a number of properties surplus to requirement which have been disposed of in the open market. The veterinary college site at Shelbourne Road was vacated on 1 March 2005. The property was assessed in the light of the State requirements in Dublin. As the site was surplus to State requirements it was placed on the open market for sale.
