As I indicated previously, the National Museum of Ireland, NMI, has requested the OPW to examine the feasibility of developing a permanent exhibition facility for the Asgard within the NMI Collins Barracks complex. OPW has identified a number of possible locations within Collins Barracks and is currently working on a feasibility study regarding this matter. It is envisaged that a feasibility report will be finalised by the end of June of this year. When this feasibility study is available to me further progress will depend on the resources available to my Department.
