66. Deputy Aindrias Moynihan asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality when the construction of the new Garda station in Macroom, County Cork, will commence; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [36448/16]
View answerThe Deputy will appreciate that the programme of replacement and refurbishment of Garda accommodation is progressed by the Garda authorities working in close cooperation with the Office of Public Works, which has responsibility for the provision and maintenance of Garda accommodation. This includes identifying and progressing any necessary remedial or refurbishment works required at individual stations.
As the Deputy will be aware, the proposed development of a new Garda Station at Macroom is among the projects included in the Garda Building and Refurbishment Programme 2016-2021, which I announced on 21 October 2015 with my colleague the Minister of State at the Office of Public Works.
