It describes a planned 18,250 m², six-storey-over-basement complex with 19 courtrooms, consultation spaces, staff and judicial accommodation, public waiting areas, mediation and family-support services, accommodation for legal practitioners, and custody facilities (NDFA project page: https://www.ndfa.ie/projects/dublin-family-courts-ppp). The page reports that in July 2023 the Department of Justice gave approval in principle to proceed as a PPP, and that after the tender stage Brehon Consortium was selected as Preferred Tenderer (NDFA project page: https://www.ndfa.ie/projects/dublin-family-courts-ppp). A separate NDFA preferred-tenderer notice says Brehon Consortium was appointed preferred tenderer. It lists Plenary Europe Ltd. as equity provider; Plenary Europe Ltd., Harp Infrastructure Management Ltd. and WS Atkins Ireland Ltd. for project management; John Paul Construction Ltd. as construction contractor; and OCS One Complete Solution Ltd. with Plenary Europe Ltd. for facilities management (NDFA preferred-tenderer notice: https://www.ndfa.ie/dublin-family-courts-ppp-preferred-tenderer). These are reported tender and role details; the cited pages do not establish that a PPP contract was executed, financing closed, or on-site work began. Reading scope note: The supplied preferred-tenderer source was observed on 7 November 2026; no publication date is supplied. Its title and visible body text were reviewed, but linked documents and images were not acquired or interpreted, and the whole document was not reviewed (NDFA preferred-tenderer notice: https://www.ndfa.ie/dublin-family-courts-ppp-preferred-tenderer). ## Evidence limits and unknowns - The cited NDFA pages do not establish whether a PPP contract was executed, financial close occurred, or construction or on-site work began (https://www.ndfa.ie/projects/dublin-family-courts-ppp; https://www.ndfa.ie/dublin-family-courts-ppp-preferred-tenderer). - Whether any buying opportunity is currently open is unknown; the preferred-tenderer notice does not establish current procurement availability (https://www.ndfa.ie/dublin-family-courts-ppp-preferred-tenderer).
