The Office of Public Works and the Department of An Taoiseach are in ongoing discussions regarding the visit of Pope Francis. Intensive planning of all the many elements of the Papal visit is continuing and evolving daily. For that reason and with further contracts yet to be agreed it is not possible to estimate accurately the cost involved.
