Amharc ar fhreagraIn response to the Deputy’s question, I can confirm that the only work carried out within my Department’s remit by the company in question is for the Office of Public Works (OPW) as set out below.
This company was contracted by the OPW on two projects. The first contractual payments for these projects were:
- Phoenix Park Gate Lodge, Garda HQ, Dublin 8 - December 2006; and
- Swords Garda Station, Co Dublin - September 2007.
The OPW advise that there are no records of fire safety inspections carried out on these buildings since completion of these works and that the OPW Fire and Safety Unit are prioritising fire surveys of these buildings.
