In relation to the vacant properties under the control of the OPW, the Minister of State identified 70 vacant properties and 33 vacant sites in information released by the Department in July last year. Can the Minister of State provide an update on those numbers? What is the current number of vacant properties and sites within the OPW's portfolio? I acknowledge that some of these are not lying vacant and there is ongoing discussion with local authorities, the HSE or different State agencies in relation to the use of them, but can the Minister of State give us an update in relation to the current figures?
