I understand from the Office of Public Works, who are responsible for day to day management of heritage sites, that agreement had been reached between the State and the late owner of this property regarding its acquisition without encumbrances. However, a number of complex legal issues have arisen since the death of the owner. These matters are being pursued by the OPW in consultation with the office of the Chief State Solicitor with the objective of completing the acquisition as soon as possible.
