In relation to my own Department, it is envisaged that its new headquarters building will be in place in Charlestown, Co Mayo, in late 2010. In the meantime, posts have been relocated to an interim location in Tubbercurry, Co. Sligo, as detailed below. The relocation of posts to Na Forbacha, Co Galway, is complete. Pobal has relocated 25 of the 40 posts assigned to Clifden, Co. Galway. In relation to Foras na Gaeilge, the approval of the first tranche of posts for location to Gaoth Dobhair is being pursued in a North/South framework. The details sought by the Deputy are set out in the following table:
