I listened with interest to the Tánaiste's replies about moving sections of the museum to the Custom House Docks site. On previous occasions the staff in the museum were told they were being allocated space in the Royal Hospital, Kilmainham, but those undertakings were not honoured. What timescale has the Tánaiste in mind to have these items put on display at the Custom House Docks site? Is it a two year period?

It will definitely be incorporated in the next phase of development at the Custom House Docks site which should, in practical terms, be within the next two years. The proposal regarding the Royal Hospital, Kilmainham, was also examined but it is not centrally located and we have now taken the decision to proceed as outlined in my original reply. I am aware of the lack of progress for many years but now something is being done and let us get on with it.
