I propose to take Questions Nos. 164 and 166 together.
The Department is obliged, under the terms of Department of Finance sanction, to accept nothing less than the valuation determined by the Valuation Office in respect of structures such as this. A revised proposal, however, has been received from the Local Authority involving a scaling down of the project. The Department wrote to the Local Authority on 31st May 2006 making certain recommendations and seeking clarification on some aspects of the proposal. The Department is awaiting a response to this letter following which a new assessment of value will be requested from the Valuation Office.
