Question:

401. Deputy Tony McLoughlin asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform in view of the fact in April 2015, this Deputy requested if the Office of Public Works would allow Easkey Garda Barracks, County Sligo to be used as a heritage centre for the village and was advised that it was to be sold by public auction in the second half of 2015, when this auction is due to take place; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform

The former Garda Station at Easkey, Co. Sligo has been identified for disposal but there has been a regrettable delay in addressing issues relating to the mast. It remains the Commissioners' intention to put the property to auction before the end of 2015.
