Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Mairead Farrell: To follow on from what the two previous Deputies were talking about, I hear Mr. Conlon's frustration in relation to the site cost.

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Mairead Farrell: On the building the OPW is renting in Smithfield, I have heard it is renting it for between €6 million and €8 million a year.

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (22 Oct 2024) Mairead Farrell: I am concerned because I know at the top of my estate in Mervue in Galway, there is huge concern about the Crown Plaza site and how much money it will cost to fit that out but that is not for the OPW to discuss here today. That is an issue of concern. With regard to the office building at Bishop's Square in Dublin 2, I understand the building has six floors. Is the OPW renting all six...
