Government spent €800,000 refurbishing press centre that is barely being used

The Government spent nearly €800,000 on refurbishing its press room for journalists in Government Buildings, the Irish Mirror has learned.

However, despite the plush new upgrades, all press conferences at Government Buildings so far this year have been held outside.

The last official press conference held in the press centre was the launch of the Climate Action Plan on December 21 2022.
