There are in the region of 130 State owned office buildings outside of Dublin City within the State property portfolio managed by the OPW. The accommodation in these buildings is allocated to Government Departments/Offices based on their business and operational needs. The vacancy rate across OPW's office portfolio is currently less than 1% which, when compared with other European countries, is very low.The day-to-day management of the space allocated to a Department and the day to day use/occupancy of actual desks is a matter for each Department.
