View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 159 and 160 together.
The Commissioners of Public Works have informed me that they are currently assessing a number of sites in Charlestown, County Mayo as potential locations for the new offices of the Department of Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs and that negotiations for the acquisition of a suitable site are now underway.
When a site has been acquired, tenders to build the new offices will be invited from interested parties.
