I can confirm that the Natural History Museum will not be used to accommodate Seanad Éireann during the renovation works to Leinster House. Subject to obtaining suitable tenders and obtaining the necessary approvals such as planning permissions and fire certificates, it is expected that a contractor will be appointed to commence works on the Natural History Museum by August 2009.
