Written answers

The Office of Public Works has engaged with the Revenue Commissioners and concluded an exercise to identify all those state owned properties, which may be liable for the property tax within their portfolio. A list identifying the residential properties within the property portfolio of the Commissioners for Public Works will be sent to Deputy Fleming under separate cover.

The Commissioners are not in a position to respond to the Deputy’s request for the market valuation of these properties as the valuations would, in some instances, be considered as commercially sensitive. This situation arises as the Commissioners will be disposing of a number of state properties to the market. Payment of the local property charge will be completed by the 1st of July, the date specified by the Revenue Commissioners
