The Deputy will be invited, I am sure there is an overlap between his question and the invitation arriving. I like to get questions like this, a Cheann Comhairle. I extend an invitation to the press to come because it is very hard to get them when we are opening fine new facilities. The staff will transfer to the new office on a phased basis, commencing on the 9 March 1991. The office will open for business on Monday, 11 March 1991 and is expected to be fully operational by Tuesday, 19 March 1991.
When the existing offices are vacated by my Department the premises will be surrendered to the Commissioners of Public Works who are responsible for the management of State property. The Commissioners will decide, having regard to the State's property needs in the area, to retain or dispose of the premises in question. My Department have no function in this matter.
