Ms Cathleen Morrison:
I can give the Deputy an answer to that. In the OPW, before we dispose of any State properties, we must go through the protocols for the transfer of State properties. There are two circulars from the Department of Finance that deal with that. Under those, we must first offer the properties to the local authorities, to the Department of children and integration and to the Land Development Agency. That was all done and no other State use was identified for those proprieties. Therefore, in accordance with our disposals policy, we put those two properties on the market.
