Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 January 2017
194. Deputy Niamh Smyth asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality the progress on the acquiring of a building for Bailieborough Garda station in County Cavan; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [1602/17]
View answerAs the Deputy will appreciate, the Office of Public Works has primary responsibility for the provision and maintenance of Garda accommodation and, as Minister, I have no direct role in relation to these matters.
As I informed the Deputy in response to Parliamentary Question No. 129 of 29 November 2016, a site has been identified for the proposed new Garda Station and I understand that the OPW is progressing the legal matters relating to the acquisition of the site.
