The list of property sold by the Office of Public Works to date in 2005 and the amounts raised are as follows:

Building Title Price Closing Date of Sale
â'¬
2 Church St., Dungarvan, Co. Waterford. Fee Simple 337,000 12 May 2004.
Lad Lane, Dublin 2. Leasehold — 92 years. 22,500,000 5 May 2004.
Blacklion Customs Frontier Post Site, Cavan. 21,586.23 16 March 2004.
72-76 St. Stephen's Green, Dublin 2. Fee Simple 52,300,000 15 Sept. 2004.
Kilmacthomas Garda Station, Co. Waterford. Fee Simple 100,000 13 August 2004.
14-16 Lord Edward St., Dublin 8. Fee Simple 8,780,140.48 30 August 2004.
Thomastown Garda Station, Co. Kilkenny. Fee Simple 450,000 7 Dec. 2004.
Total 2004: 84,488,726.71

Two sites were also made available to the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government for affordable housing, one at Jamestown Road, Inchicore, and the other at Infirmary Road.

The bulk of the proceeds of these sales will go to finance the decentralisation programme, while €10 million has been applied to priority projects, mainly in the Garda area. Identification of properties surplus to requirements evolves continuously and it is not possible to confirm what properties will be disposed of in 2005. Premature release of disposal information and timescales would also affect the potential income from such disposals.
