In a legal transaction and conveyancing managed by the Chief State Solicitor’s Office the freehold ownership of this building along with three other buildings was acquired by the State from the previous owner in 2015. This acquisition and conveyance of freehold title was not subject to any encumbrance, leasehold interest or title burden. No lease of any description has been entered into in the meantime.
