Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform

The property at Westgate House in Drogheda is the subject of an intra-State transfer between the Commissioners of Public Works and Louth County Council.

I understand from my officials that they continue to engage with officials in Louth County Council with a view to finalising the transfer of the property, which is due to be completed shortly. The long-term plans for the property will be determined by the Council.
