Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 5 March 2024
254. Deputy Matt Carthy asked the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment the ground rents payable by his Department, or agencies under its remit, by named property, by name of landlord and by amount payable, in the years 2016 to date; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10412/24]
View answerThe properties occupied by my Department and its Offices are provided by the Office of Public Works (OPW) in buildings which are either State owned or leased by the OPW on our behalf. Therefore, my Department has no direct involvement in the payment of ground rents on these buildings.
The payment of ground rents by Agencies under the aegis of my Department is an operational matter for themselves, however they have been asked to supply material in relation to this matter and this will be forwarded to the Deputy within 10 days.
