Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Engagement with Chairpersons Designate of Public Bodies

9:30 am

Mr. John Mullins:

Deputy Catherine Murphy asked an important question about land. It was the only question she asked. We own Tivoli and the quays. We own Tivoli on behalf of the State. Our intention is to work with the National Pensions Reserve Fund to develop that to a point. We are not property developers but we want to maximise the value of that entity for the State. That is why we have six architectural designs put together for Tivoli for the future which will go out for stakeholder consultation. We are also working closely with the city council to examine how many dwellings we can put in that location. Some 3,000 to 4,000 houses and apartments could be built in Tivoli in a river side setting.
