With regard to the availability of property within Howth Fishery Harbour Centre, I would inform the Deputy that properties located in the Fishery Harbour Centres are, when appropriate, offered for tenancy under lease agreement by means of an open competitive tendering process in accordance with good practice and public procurement guidelines. My Department is currently preparing properties in Howth Fishery Harbour Centre to be made available shortly by means of Public Tender Process. The specific property of interest to the individual mentioned will not be in this first tranche of tenders, but will be made available following some planning clarifications and decisions on the necessity of works on the existing roof of the building. These tenders will be publicly advertised and are open to all interested parties.
