I would refer the Deputy to my reply to Question No. 654 on 5th February 2008. I understand that the Office of Public Works has now completed the evaluation of tenders received for the construction of the new permanent offices for the Property Registration Authority and a preferred tenderer has been identified and notified. The Preferred Tenderer will now be required to apply for planning permission and on satisfactory completion of the planning process, the OPW will instruct the Preferred Tenderer to finalise working drawings, specifications and a Bill of Quantities with a view to a contract being placed and construction work commencing on site at the earliest possible date.
