Ms Cathleen Morrison:
We can certainly provide the Deputy with a list of those stations. Originally, 139 stations were closed by An Garda Síochána in 2012 and 2013. We have disposed of many of them and, as Mr. Conlon said, given them to local communities or local authorities. There are title issues that have to be rectified in respect of some of them before they can be disposed of, but we are working actively on all of them. Since 2019, we have disposed of 89 properties, which has generated income in excess of €21 million.
