Written answers

In relation to the Garda stations operating in the State, the full details are provided on the Garda Síochána website and I would refer the Deputy to the relevant webpage at www.garda.ie. The general position is that the properties which serve as Garda stations are provided by the Office of Public Works and, as such, ownership of the relevant sites and buildings falls outside my official remit. However, a limited number of Garda stations were vested in the Minister for Justice and Equality under the provisions of the General Prisons Board (Transfer of Functions) Order, 1928 (S.I. No 79 of 1928). The stations concerned are: Midleton; Kenmare; Callan; Urlingford; Dundalk; Castleblaney; Trim; Waterford.
