Ms Clare McGrath:
Ultimately, the gardens will come in full title to the State after the duration of the trust period. In the intervening period, the local authority, ourselves and the Congreve Foundation are anxious the gardens are presented and accessed by the public. The Congreve Foundation, which is one element of the trust, is anxious to progress this and will obtain recompense for the opening from charging at the entrance. Long-term, this is a positive position to be in and we are anxious Waterford County Council, as the local authority, is involved. Ultimately, it will come to the State.
