Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy will be aware from my reply to Parliamentary Questions No 276 and 277 and 278 of 5 May 2022, the Customs House and its surrounding grounds are protected structures in the ownership of the Office of Public Works (OPW).
I am pleased to advise the Deputy that my officials and the OPW have recently agreed to the placement of this Plaque in the Custom House Visitors Centre, which is under the management of the OPW. Preparations are now underway for the installation of the plaque at a suitable location. An announcement will issue in due course once arrangements have been finalised.
