To date one hundred and twenty three (123) staff of my Department have decentralised to Tullamore and a further two (2) have accepted offers of decentralisation. It is envisaged that a further five (5) will have relocated to Tullamore by the end of 2008, bringing to one hundred and thirty (130) the overall number of posts which will have been decentralised to Tullamore.
My Department decentralised to Tullamore in July 2006 and I am advised by the Office of Public Works that the cost of purchasing and fitting out of the office in Tullamore was €10,034,000.

The Office of Public Works (OPW) commenced operations in the OPW advance office in Claremorris in September 2007. There are 29 staff currently in place out of the 142 posts to be transferred to this location. OPW has acquired the site for their permanent offices in Claremorris at a cost of €2.5m and it is expected that this building will be ready for occupation in 2009.
