Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 January 2014
568. Deputy Brian Walsh asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the amount allocated under the domestic infrastructure stimulus package in 2012 specifically for the purpose of developing a new Garda divisional headquarters at Murrough, Renmore, County Galway; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3479/14]
View answerAs the Deputy is aware, the provision of the new Galway Garda Divisional Headquarters was included in the special Government stimulus package announced in July 2012. It is intended that the projects in question will be delivered by means of a Public Private Partnership and work is being undertaken by the relevant agencies in the light of the Government announcement.
The amount of money that will be involved in the case of the Divisional Headquarters in Galway will be determined in the course of the Public Private Partnership process. As the arrangements to be put in place for these Partnerships are complex, it is not possible at this stage to indicate what the specific details in respect of Galway will be. However, I can assure the Deputy that the matter is being treated as a priority.
