I propose to take Questions Nos. 104 and 414 together.
I have not received any proposals to close Garda stations in the Dublin area at night and I have no such plans.
106 Mr. U. Burke asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the plans, if any, he has to upgrade and extend a Garda station (details supplied) in County Galway in order to provide reasonable working conditions and up to date equipment for the station and its members; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

It is proposed to carry out a major refurbishment of this Garda station. I understand that the Office of Public Works are preparing tender documents for the project at the moment. It is expected that a contract will be placed early next year.
