Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 14 February 2017
128. Deputy Niamh Smyth asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality if there is any update or indication of an advancement or movement in legal negotiations regarding the acquisition of a new site for Bailieborough Garda station; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [7329/17]
View answerThe Deputy will be aware that 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.
The position remains as outlined in my response to Parliamentary Question No. 194 of 17 January 2017, wherein I indicated that a site has been identified for the proposed new Garda Station and that the OPW is progressing the legal matters relating to the acquisition of the site.
