The Government decided in December 2003 that my Department's Dublin-based staff are to be decentralised to Newbridge, Co. Kildare. Kildare County Council has approved the sale of a site at Station Road in Newbridge to the Office of Public Works for the construction of the Department's new headquarters. The planning process has also been completed and a decision in that regard has issued by the OPW this week. The Office of Public Works has selected a Preferred Tenderer who will carry out the construction of the Department's new headquarters in Newbridge once a contract has been placed.
