My Department occupies 5 buildings 3 of which are wheelchair accessible as outlined in the table below. In the case of my Department's office in Doire Beaga a ramp and handrail have been provided and wheelchair access is available to the ground floor only. A small reception area is provided on the ground floor. My Department is currently investigating the possibility of relocating to new offices nearby which will be fully accessible.

In the case of my Department's office in Tralee, which we share with the Revenue Commissioners and the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries & Food, disabled access is available to our office through the areas occupied by the other Departments.
