The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade currently utilises 138 properties abroad in pursuit of its mission on behalf of the State, which includes promoting Irish economic interests, providing services to the public and representing Ireland in international organisations. 35 of these properties are owned by the State and the balance are rented. They are used primarily as office premises and official residences of Heads of Mission. They provide platforms to enable our Missions to project a positive image of Ireland overseas and fulfil their varying responsibilities. The costs requested by the Deputy in relation to repair, maintenance and improvement works to such properties in 2011, 2012 and 2013 (end of April) are attached.
