Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 18 April 2023
474. Deputy Sean Sherlock asked the Minister for Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform the status of work, and if he has received any request or correspondence from a Local authority regarding a building (details supplied). [18307/23]
View answerThis property was the subject of PQ 55497/21 and PQ 7920/23 submitted by the Deputy.
The position regarding Vernon Mount House remains the same. The House and it’s immediate curtilage registered under Folio CK136041F is owned by a private company Vernon Mount House Restoration Ltd. This company is live, its annual returns are up to date and the CRO status is Normal. The house is not State property and, that being the case, neither the OPW nor the Minister for Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform has any role in this matter.
There is no record of OPW receiving correspondence from the local authority in respect of Mount Vernon House during 2022 or 2023. As this property is privately owned there is no expectation that the OPW would receive such correspondence, because it has no role in the ownership or management of the property.
