Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform (Mr. O'Donoghue)

Correspondence was received in my Department on 25 April 2000 from Limerick County Council concerning proposals for the development of land at Newcastle in Castletroy, County Limerick, and inquiring if my Department had any interest in procuring some of this land to provide a Garda station. This matter is currently under consideration and a response will issue to the county council as soon as possible.
