Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure, Infrastructure, Public Service Reform and Digitalisation

The Office of Public Works advertised publicly for proposals for the operation of a mobile catering unit at Casino Marino in 2024 and 2025.

In 2024, a number of expressions of interest were received and paperwork was issued to all interested parties to make a formal application. No applications were returned. In 2025, the opportunity was advertised again and no expressions of interest were received.

The possibility of advertising for the 2026 season will be reviewed early next year.
