There are a number of issues I wish to cover, so I am indicating that I wish to contribute again at some point.

I will start with something that is not in the OPW’s 2022 accounts but I wish was, namely, Castletown House. For people who do not know it, it is a building of international significance in terms of its architecture and the grounds in which it sits. It attracted approximately 1 million visitors per year, mostly to its grounds. What is the value of the house for insurance purposes? Approximately €25 million has been put into the house and the grounds since 2005.
