I have followed the matter for a year or two. The Department of Justice and Equality had approved the initiative, as had the Garda and the OPW. I am now told that the cost to the OPW, for what one would have thought was a minor issue, is quite high. I accept that the OPW has to do whatever it must and that people have different types of properties. I have been told that the OPW has done it in one or two cases. The Garda might send us a note on the current status of the initiative.
