Written answers

The Office of Public Works (OPW), in conjunction with the Department of Foreign Affairs, is progressing the development of new office accommodation for the Passport Service in Cork.

The project is currently at an advanced stage of design. It is anticipated that construction and fit-out works will be completed in Q2 2027. This is based on the current anticipated timelines on procurement and business environment however these maybe subject to change due to external factors.

Following the completion of the fit-out, a further period will be required for client-specific installations, including ICT and furniture, prior to occupation.
