Minister for Justice and Equality

The programme of replacement and refurbishment of Garda accommodation around the country is progressed by the Garda authorities working in close cooperation with the Office of Public Works (OPW), which has the responsibility for the provision and maintenance of Garda accommodation.

I am informed by the Garda Commissioner that works in relation to the public office of the station are under consideration by an Garda Síochána and the OPW.
