Written answers

Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment

My Department has decentralised offices situated in Cavan and Wexford Towns and these offices have responsibility for delivering on a range of the Department's business areas.  No business units from this Department have been re-centralised back to Dublin from regional locations.
