I am very keen that positive progress be reported on the Hammond Lane venture. I acknowledge there are particular challenges in the administration of family law in our courts, not only in terms of infrastructure but also in terms of management.
On the matter of infrastructure, I have a sum of money available to the order of €80 million. We have a vacant site. There are ongoing discussions between the appropriate stakeholders, my Department, the Courts Service and the National Development Finance Agency. I want to see real progress on the Hammond Lane family law project this year.
