I understand that the IPA Board and Management regularly review the accommodation needs of the IPA by reference to its role and mission, keeps my Department briefed on its deliberations and consults with my Department as and when appropriate. Any proposal to my Department from the IPA would be considered with regard to the relevant framework for assessing value for money.
