As the Deputy may be aware, under the provisions of the Courts Service Act 1998, management and the administration of the courts is the responsibility of the Courts Service which is independent in exercising its functions which include the provision of accommodation for court sittings.
However, in order to be of assistance to the Deputy, I have had enquiries made and the Courts Service has provided details of the costs and description of the works carried out since 2004 at Westport Courthouse as set out in the table.
Year | Description | Cost € |
---|---|---|
2004 | Reconstructed the boundary wall | 15,000.00 |
2005 | Electrical repairs carried out | 733.19 |
2007 | Repaired lights | 1,623.21 |
2008 | Painting of windows and doors. | 3,958.82 |
2008 | Two flag poles were erected | 1,585.88 |
2010 | Repaired an air conditioning unit | 726.40 |
2011 | Repaired leaks in flat roof and toilet | 938.09 |
2012 | Repairs to chimney | 537.50 |
The Courts Service has requested information from the OPW on the timeframe for completion of the projects concerned. I will write to the Deputy when the information is received.* no works were carried out in 2003, 2006, 2009 and 2013 to date.
