Oireachtas Commission seems to have rejected a less conspicuous location for the bike shelter for "security" reasons. In this location near the members restaurant a standard structure was suggested.
The OPW seems to have been against the new location and said it would be more costly, but no costs were given or asked for. The commission suggested the location it was built in. the OPW simply followed the commission's request
Oireachtas Commission is made up of several politicians from several parties and chaired by Sean O'Fearghail (egg on face with his comments). Sinn Fein's Louise O'Reilly and Social Democrats Jennifer Whitmore are also members - and seem to be very quiet on the issue as they had the oversight.
