The Government decided that "the Office of Public Works would chair a working group to develop a structured and coherent approach to the further management and development of the site, on the basis that Cork County Council would be asked to continue to discharge site management responsibilities on an agency basis...". The working group has been established and the members comprise, in the first instance, representatives from the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government, the Department of Defence, the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment and the Department of Finance. As soon as the draft Terms of Reference have been finalised, the working group will be convened, and it is envisaged that a report will be ready for government within six months.
