Despite protracted negotiations, acceptable terms for leasing of premises in Leixlip, for use as a Garda substation were not offered to the Commissioners of Public Works. As indicated in my predecessor's reply to the Deputy's questions (Nos. 99, 100, Cols. 91, 92) on 19 October last, a number of other properties are under consideration by the commissioners for leasing purposes.
