View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 261 to 267, inclusive, together.
I am advised that the information sought by the Deputy are operational matters for the Arts Council and National Cultural Institutions in question and is not something for which I have direct, day-to-day responsibility. The National Cultural Institutions engage closely with the Office of Public Works regarding their property requirements and most of these Institutions are based in State-owned properties.
