That a Supplementary sum not exceeding £1,000 be granted to defray the Charge which will come in course of payment during the year ending 31st March, 1935, for expenditure in respect of Public Buildings; for the maintenance of certain Parks and Public Works; and for the execution and maintenance of Drainage Works.
This Supplementary Estimate is presented in order to provide funds for the Memorial which, in accordance with the decision of the Executive Council, is to be erected in the interior of the General Post Office, Dublin, to those who fell during Easter Week, 1916. The Memorial is to consist of an exact replica in bronze of the model entitled "The Death of Cuchullain," executed by Mr. Oliver Sheppard, together with a pedestal and screen containing a suitable inscription. The position provisionally selected for the memorial is between the two columns in the public office of the General Post Office, Dublin. The sculptor is to arrange to have the casting in bronze made by a Brussels foundry of reputation and long experience of this class of work. He will have the model properly packed for transit and make arrangements to pay for the transit of the model to the foundry and of the finished statue from the foundry to Dublin. He has undertaken not to make, or cause or permit to be made any other replica of the model in any material whatsoever. He is to be paid the sum of £725 for the completed replica in bronze. The Board of Works will arrange for the erection of the pedestal and screen and, of course, will consult with the sculptor with regard to material and design. The total cost of the replica, pedestal and screen will be about £1,000 and, accordingly, that amount is asked for in this Estimate.
