Under the provisions of the Courts Service Act 1998, management of the courts, including the provision of accommodation for court sittings, is the responsibility of the Courts Service which is independent in exercising its functions.
However, in order to be of assistance to the deputy, I have had enquiries made and the Courts Service has informed me that the quantum of the regular Capital Funding for Estates is currently €4.88m per annum. A 10% increase would be an additional €0.488m per annum.
