Public Accounts Committee

2021 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works
Chapter 8 - Contract payments in respect of Convention Centre Dublin

9:30 am

Mr. Maurice Buckley:

The location is the north wing of Earlsfort Terrace. That is one aspect that is helpful. Earlsfort Terrace is a very important historic building. It was the exhibition building back in the 1800s. It is in a very bad state of repair. People will know the National Concert Hall on the south side of the building. The Government has just approved a major investment in that. However, the other half of the building will need major investment over the next decade in any case to repair it. That offsets to some extent but does not fully answer the questions and concerns raised. However, it is important.
