My Department has been engaged in consultations with the library authority and An Chomhairle Leabharlanna regarding library development in Kildare Town for some time. While the issues surrounding this proposal are complex, my Department is currently in further contact with the local authority in an effort to finalise the matter and I hope to be in a position to make a decision in the near future.
The day to day management of any library project, including proposed timescales of construction, are a matter for the local authority in question.
