Question:138 Mr. O'Shea asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the position regarding the new Garda barracks for Kilmacthomas, County Waterford; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [11307/00]
Written Answers. - Garda Stations.
I can inform the Deputy that a brief of requirements for a new area headquarters station to be located at Kilmacthomas has recently been agreed. The matter is now with the Office of Public Works to draw up a sketch scheme of the new station. When this has been done, it will be passed to the Garda authorities for agreement. I cannot say at this stage when construction of the new station will commence as this is dependent on a number of factors, including the availability of funding and overall Garda priorities.
