The facility was expected to include classrooms, a music school, health facilities, a library, a bookshop, a café, a crèche, and a number of free inititatives for the public, including internet access, advisory and counselling services.[12][8][13] The camp was dismantled on 13 March 2012.[14] ResponsesFine Gael politician Des Cahill described the protest as "attention seeking".[15] Former Green Party senator and party chairman Dan Boyle described the manoeuver of 3 January as an "interesting development" and suggested that it was a legal and "legitimate protest".[15]See also
