Dublin City Council has submitted a preliminary report to the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government, outlining the regeneration proposals for the Charlemont Street flats, including the Tom Kelly flats complex. As it is a preliminary report, the matter requires detailed consideration, by the Department in consultation with Dublin City Council, of the nature and extent of the proposed refurbishment and how it should be implemented in the most cost effective manner. The examination is being advanced by the Department and a decision will be conveyed to Dublin City Council as soon as possible. The question of committing funding to the outline proposals does not arise at this stage.
