My Department does not provide services to members of the public through the operation of public offices at its locations in Dublin, Killarney, Na Forbacha and Gaoth Dobhar.
With regard to those bodies under the aegis of my Department the provision of defibrillators in public offices is a day-to-day matter for each body.
Within that context, my Department is advised that defibrillators are available in those locations that are open to the public such as the National Cultural Institutions. With specific reference to Fáilte Ireland, I am advised that defibrillators are available in some but not all tourist information offices.
Regarding bodies under the aegis of this Department, I am advised that all of the public servicing buildings are equipped with defibrillators.
