320. To ask the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform the security measures that will be put in place once Seanad Éireann temporarily relocates to the National Museum of Ireland; the fire safety measures to be implemented; if these will require additional structural amendments to the building; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The works relating to the temporary relocation of Seanad Eireann to areas of the National Museum of Ireland require consideration under the provisions of Part 9 of the Planning and Development Regulations 2001 (as amended). The design and specification of the works necessary as a result of this relocation take full account of the security and fire safety considerations arising with this temporary move and also any structural amendments to the building arising from these works.

As the written submissions and observations received under that process are still under consideration, it would not be appropriate to comment further on this matter.
