Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 9 December 2014
460. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources the proposed works to Mountjoy House which is under the aegis of the Ordnance Survey Ireland; if a restoration and a new use is envisaged for this building; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [46982/14]
View answerWhile Mountjoy House lies within the main campus of buildings and facilities of Ordnance Survey Ireland (OSI) in the Phoenix Park, Dublin, the building is part of the property portfolio of the Office of Public Works and OSI is not responsible for its maintenance or refurbishment. For the information of the Deputy, I understand that remedial works are currently being undertaken by the Office of Public Works to protect the fabric of the building. Any decision on refurbishment would be a matter for OPW in the first instance.
