As part of the plan for the roll-out of Intreo Centres, the Lucan/Adamstown and Clondalkin areas have been designated by the Department for the provision of Intreo services in Dublin Mid West.

The Office of Public Works has been exploring options in both Lucan and Adamstown for an Intreo Centre, but given the limited choice of suitably sized and located offices, complex property and development issues, and third party interests, this process is taking longer than expected. The Department is anxious to see the Intreo service delivered in the area within a reasonable timeframe.

Works are currently ongoing in Clondalkin where Intreo services will be provided from both the existing Local Office and the former Motor Tax Office. These works are expected to be completed by the end of March/early April 2015.
