The response that I provided to the Deputy is response to a similar Question on 11 March 2014 (Question No. 184) outlined the position, which I confirm for the Deputy, is unaltered.

"Deputy Michael McGrath asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform if he will specify the provisions that have been made for the residents of Portobello, Dublin 8, in respect of the potential risk of flooding which emanates from a design of the Office of Public Works prepared on behalf of the Irish Jewish Museum in view of a statement (details supplied) from the inspector of An Bord Pleanála; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [184]

Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform (Deputy Brian Hayes): Planning approval for the proposed Irish Jewish Museum development has been granted subject to the revised conditions outlined by An Bord Pleanála. The final detailed design will be the responsibility of the Architects and Engineers to be appointed by the Irish Jewish Museum".
