Ms Katherine Licken:

I might add, Deputy, that in the general run of things, the Office of Public Works, OPW, manages the State's property portfolio and all the offices we inhabit right across the board. On this occasion, the OPW was not in a position to provide the service and find the accommodation for Foras na Gaeilge. If there was a question of purchasing a building, that would fall to the OPW.
