The Commissioners of Public Works, on behalf of the State, manage a large and diverse property portfolio of over 2,500 properties, including the former O'Connell Street Garda Station and the property once occupied by An Gúm.

Officials in my Department have informed me that they are aware of the planning application referred to by the Deputy and that a letter of consent has been requested. The matter is under consideration by the OPW in consultation with other State interests.
