Vol. 464 No. 2

Written Answers. - County Cork Court.

Ned O'Keeffe

Ceist:

105 Mr. E. O'Keeffe asked the Minister for Justice the further consideration, if any, that has been given to holding a District Court in one of four suitable venues, (details supplied) in County Cork to alleviate the difficulties the holding of this Court in a town is causing; if her attention has been drawn to the fact that many of those persons having to attend the Court in question have to travel at a cost to themselves which they are unable to meet; and when the existing District Court, which is currently undergoing refurbishment works, will be available. [7841/96]

One of the venues referred to by the Deputy has now been deemed suitable for court hearings and is available. Discussions are now taking place with the owners to reach an agreement on the leasing terms. It is anticipated that all the refurbishment works on the existing courthouse should be completed by the end of the year.
