Mr. Drew Harris:

The simple answer to that is that the estate is owned and run by the Office of Public Works and we make a case to it for a new station. I then would be expected to service that from within existing resources. Making a case on whether there should be a new station would depend on more than population. We would have to look at the demand and also the demand on other agencies in the area, as well as some socio-economic factors. We must establish if we can identify a critical need.
