Amharc ar fhreagraIn response to the Deputy’s question, OPW provides accommodation for Government Services and manages much of the State’s property portfolio. All office facility and renovation projects related to accommodation provided for staff working in the Department of Finance are managed by the Office of Public Works, which is under the aegis of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. I am not aware of the use by OPW of the company in question in relation any works carried out in the buildings previously or currently occupied by staff of my Department.
In relation to the 17 bodies under the aegis of my Department, my understanding is that the particular company has not undertaken work over the past ten years for any of those bodies.
