The programme of replacement and refurbishment of Garda accommodation is based on agreed priorities established by An Garda Síochána. This programme is progressed by the Office of Public Works, which has responsibility for the provision and maintenance of Garda accommodation. Since August 2008 new Garda Stations have been provided in the Dublin Region at Irishtown, Finglas and Ballymun. Significant refurbishment works are currently underway at a number of Garda premises in the Dublin region, including Mountjoy, Ronanstown, Kilmainham and Blanchardstown Garda Stations. In addition, significant refurbishment works have been completed since 2010 at a number of Garda premises, including Harcourt Square, Dublin Castle, Clontarf, Whitehall and O'Connell St. The future Garda accommodation requirements in the Dublin Metropolitan Region will be pursued in the context of An Garda Síochána's identified accommodation priorities and in the light of available resources.
