Galway Bay fm newsroom - A new report on potential uses for St. Brigid's Campus in Ballinasloe has highlighted a 'very clear' consensus on it's future.
That's according to Galway-Roscommon Minister Denis Naughten, who's been overseeing a consultation project on the future of the site.
A report has now been published, which outlines an overall consensus for a multi-use space that would draw on the mental health history of the site.
This could involve the creation of a museum and heritage site which would incorporate features such as training facilities and commercial space.
It follows a high-level meeting last month which brought together local stakeholders and representatives from state agencies.
The backbone of the project is an online survey carried out earlier this year - which drew over 600 responses from members of the public.
Independent Minister Naughten says the next step will be promoting the vision for the site - and looking towards a feasability study.
