Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform (Deputy Dermot Ahern)

The Garda accommodation programme is based on agreed priorities established by An Garda Síochána and it is brought forward in close cooperation with the Office of Public Works, which has responsibility for the provision and maintenance of Garda accommodation. Garda accommodation requirements are considered in the context of the Garda Síochána's identified accommodation priorities and in light of available resources.

I will write to the Deputy as soon as possible with the most up to date information from both the Office of Public Works and the Garda Síochána on the station in question.
