Westgate House, Narrow West Street, Drogheda, County Louth is in the ownership of the Commissioners of Public Works in Ireland.

Officials in my Department have informed me that the sales contract to transfer the property to Louth County Council is currently being reviewed, in consultation with the Chief State Solicitor's Office. The contract will then be forwarded to the solicitors acting on behalf of the Council. It is anticipated that the transfer will be fully completed in Q1 2023.
