Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Garda Reform and Related Issues: Discussion

Mr. Drew Harris:

Stepaside is to open in the next quarter. It will be staffed, so there will be Stepaside personnel. Stepaside is to run as an operational station 24-7. It is also proposed, but not finalised, to include some element of roads policing in Stepaside as well. It is a local decision but I do not believe it will be open 24-7. The front desk will not be open 24-7 but there will be a front desk available during office hours. We are looking forward to getting it open and having, in effect, another base to patrol from.
