Malcolm Noonan (GP), Carlow-Kilkenny

The Minister has committed to a meeting. Just to outline the works on Pearse House in the past 24 months, all roofs were repaired in 2018. Blocks A and C had their roofs upgraded in March 2019. Stairwells were repaired in 2019. A drainage survey of the entire complex was completed in 2018. There were repairs to the network system, and upgrades to the fire and domestic alarms and ventilation units, which relate to dampness, a matter the Deputy raised.
These are ongoing refurbishments and are part of a wider in-depth national regeneration programme that includes community development approaches of inclusion and of tackling the causes of disadvantage in these communities.
