152. Deputy Niamh Smyth asked the Minister for Social Protection to review correspondence (details supplied); if she will ensure that parking in provided for staff in her local Department; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [55627/23]
View answerAccommodation for my Department is provided by the Office of Public Works (OPW) in buildings which are either State owned or leased by the OPW on our behalf. The accommodation is typically shared with other Government Departments and Offices with limited car parking spaces available to staff.
This has been brought to the attention of the Department's management who are currently actively engaging with the OPW on this matter.
On foot of this engagement, the OPW are reviewing parking facilities at other owned and leased properties in Cavan town to establish if there are surplus parking spaces that can be allocated to staff affected by the sale of this car park.
