Vol. 442 No. 3

Written Answers. - Grand Canal: Lockman's House.

Jim Mitchell

Ceist:

71 Mr. J. Mitchell asked the Minister for Finance if the old Lockman's house on the Grand Canal beside 13 Goldenbridge Terrace, Inchicore, Dublin 8 is in the ownership of the Office of Public Works; if so, if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the vacant building is being constantly set on fire; the steps, if any, he will take to have the house properly reinstated and sold; if, in the meantime the building is secure from vandalism, especially in view of the threat that the present situation poses for the immediate adjacent houses; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Although this property was at one time part of the Grand Canal infrastructure, it is no longer owned by the Office of Public Works. It was sold to Dublin Corporation earlier this year.
