Joint Oireachtas Committee on Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs

Sustaining Viable Rural Communities: Discussion (Resumed)

2:15 pm

Mr. Jerh O'Donoghue:

Yes. There will be four apartments for older people and a residential area for the remaining sisters. As they, I suppose, pass on, we will be taking over more. We own the whole place now. It is a listed building which could have fallen into decay, but we took it over as we saw it as important. The State and the Government are benefiting enormously from the project as up to €200,000 in VAT will be taken in as well as PRSI on wages etc. We will be hoping to recoup some €200,000 in some shape or form over the next few years.
