The National Metrology Laboratory, which occupies a purpose built premises, is the only part of the National Standards Authority of Ireland (NSAI) currently on the Glasnevin site. The other parts of NSAI moved from the site in March 2008.
Maintenance (security, power, rates etc) costs are recouped from the NSAI to Enterprise Ireland in respect of the National Metrology Laboratory. In 2010, these are expected to be of the order of €140,000 (approx). This estimate is included in the figure of €1m mentioned in my previous reply.
