Vol. 411 No. 4

Written Answers. - Drogheda (Louth) Garda Station.

Michael Bell

Question:

130 Mr. Bell asked the Minister for Justice the reason for the continuing delay in providing a new Garda station at Drogheda, County Louth; and if he will outline the number of new Garda stations which have been provided in each of the past five years and their location.

The site purchased by the Office of Public Works for the new Garda district headquarters at Drogheda was subsequently found to be of archaeological interest. Consideration is being given at present to matters such as the design of the station in order to preserve certain archaeological features, having due regard to cost considerations. The matter is being proceeded with as quickly as possible.

The new Garda stations provided in each of the past five years are as follows:
