I wish to advise the Deputy that the Department instructed the Chief State Solicitors Office (CSSO) to proceed with a long term lease agreement in relation to the issue in question. In the interim, I understand that the Local Authority have raised a number of pre-lease enquiries which the Department understands have now been clarified. The Department has instructed the CSSO to close on the case as a matter of urgency.
