Tánaiste and Minister for Defence

The information sought by the Deputy could not be collated in the timeframe available. I will revert directly to the Deputy when same is available.

The following deferred reply was received under Standing Order 51

I refer to the above mentioned Parliamentary Questions from 5th March 2024 which was deferred: “To ask the Tánaiste and Minister for Defence the ground rents payable by his Department or agencies under its remit, by named property, by name of landlord and by amount payable, in the years 2016 to date; and if he will make a statement on the matter.”

While it was not possible to provide the requested information to you within the given timeframe, I am now in a position to provide information on this matter.

Please see below the ground rents paid by this Department for the years 2016 to date by landlord and amount in tabular format:
