View answerIt is the Office of Public Works (OPW) role to manage the State's property portfolio effectively, ensuring that its potential is maximised and that it is used efficiently. To fulfil this role, the OPW is at the initial stage of preparing a master plan that will allow full flexibility on the future potential uses of the lands owned by the State at Knockmay, Portlaoise, Co. Laois. No decision has been made as to the specific uses that will be accommodated on the site.
