Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 16 January 2018
560. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he will address a matter (details supplied) regarding the condition of the offices of his Department in Killarney, County Kerry; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [1067/18]
View answerThere are procedures for dealing with any staff concerns in relation to office accommodation and any matters arising are kept under on-going review. The Office of Public Works (OPW) acts as the central property services provider for all office accommodation for Government Departments and carries out all building related projects on our behalf. The office in Killarney to which the Deputy refers is actually a shared building with the newly established National Shared Services Office (NSSO) under the auspices of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. There are plans by that office in conjunction with my Department and the OPW to further develop the office in Killarney in the context of the expansion of the NSSO. The issue of window replacement will be incorporated in that programme of works.
