Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform

I can confirm that the Office of Public Works plans to commence the following works at Mullingar Garda Station; boiler upgrade works, upgrade and refurbishment works to timber windows, partial internal decorating and the provision of accommodation for a specialist Garda Unit. These works have been tendered, are expected to commence in the coming months and be complete before the year end.

Although not finalised, the Office of Public Works is working with Garda Estate Management and local Garda management on preparing options for addressing further requirements at Mullingar Garda Station.
