I can inform the Deputy that my Department is endeavouring to purchase a site, the subject of this Parliamentary Question, from Kildare County Council for some time.
I wish to confirm that funding is available from my Department for the purchase of the site and for the building of a premises to meet the needs of the Project in question. Planning permission has been obtained in accordance with the plans and specifications. Once the purchase of the site is complete, the tender process for the construction of the premises will commence.
I am advised, by our legal representatives, that the outstanding minor issues have been addressed. My Department is now in receipt of the contract of sale and I am now confident that the purchase will be finalised very shortly.
