Roderic O'Gorman (GP), Dublin West

The Complex is the only multi-disciplinary arts centre in Dublin's north inner city. It combines a performance space, a gallery and 18 artists' studios. It is also about to close. Management of the Complex have been talks with the Government and the city council since 2018 to secure the long-term future of this centre but it has now been served with a notice to quit. The city council passed an emergency motion on the issue and there is due to be a public meeting on the issue on Thursday. As Minister for public expenditure, is Deputy Chambers aware of this issue and will he commit to engage with Dublin City Council and with his colleague, the Minister for Finance, to work on a solution to protect this key cultural space for Dublin city centre?
