My Department has been considering the implications of the An Bord Pleanála decision with the Office of Public Works, with a view to identifying the options available and I expect to have recommendations for action shortly.

In the meantime, I want to repeat what I said publicly and in response to a Dáil question on 27 June: the policy of decentralisation is unchanged and I remain fully committed to the decentralisation of the Department's headquarters to Co. Mayo.
