Mr. Michael Donnellan:

Egans Cash and Carry is owned by the OPW which allows the Irish Prison Service to occupy the space. Some of the overflow from Mountjoy Prison is housed there. We added 20 additional beds to the Dóchas women's prison and had to dislodge all of the staff from there, as well as all the locking systems and showers, which are now housed in Egans Cash and Carry. The Irish Prison Service also has a small Dublin office with some 15 staff. The space is being used in its entirety by the Irish Prison Service.
