Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 November 2017
146. Deputy Catherine Martin asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform the Office of Public Works plans for use of the site of the Central Mental Hospital, Dundrum, Dublin 14, when the facility is moved to the new national forensic mental health hospital in Portrane; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [50307/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe Central Mental Hospital is in the full ownership of the Commissioners of Public Works in Ireland (CPW). The Health Service Executive (HSE) currently occupy the site and I believe that they will move this facility to Portrane in the future.
Once the HSE vacate the site a decision will be made by the CPW on its future use having regard to the requirements of all other state bodies.
