Mr. Niall Cussen:

I thank the Senator for reminding me about the matter and apologise to him for my omission. We have quite a good register of State lands on the Rebuilding Ireland website. I do not know if he is familiar with website. We are not saying that the website contains the forensic totality of everything that is out there.

It should be remembered, of course, that a lot of land in this country is not registered. Bottoming that out can be challenging. However, we intend to focus on and progress that area, particularly with our colleagues in the Property Registration Authority, Tailte Éireann and the local authorities. We need sharper and sharper information on the State land asset, particularly in brownfield areas and so on. As we develop up and progress our ideas about the establishment of the national regeneration and development agency and the evidence base that it works off, that will be a major focus for us. If there is anything we have missed or key areas that the Senator thinks we should be aware of, etc., he is very welcome to share them with us.
