The Kilmore Quay Volunteer Coast Guard Unit, which is designated as a search unit, is currently operating out of an original Coast Guard station, generally classified as a rocket house. The Irish Coast Guard, which is a division of my Department, has been in on-going consultations with the Office of Public Works with regard to the acquisition of a suitable site for a new Unit building. The Office of Public Works has surveyed a site offered by Wexford County Council and are preparing a feasibility study on this site.
