There are two Garda stations on the Inishowen peninsula at which prisoners are held, Buncrana and Burnfoot. Both stations are due for refurbishment and because of the need to have one of the stations operating with cell accommodation at any one time, a strategy has been agreed with the local Garda Síochána whereby Burnfoot will be refurbished first. The Buncrana project is a larger scheme of works and will involve an extension and refurbishment to the existing Garda station which has been made possible by the acquisition of two adjoining plots of land. Certain site and boundary works are necessary in the short term at Buncrana and these will be undertaken in the near future. Planning of the Buncrana project is in hand and it will proceed when the Burnfoot scheme is completed.
