- Public Accounts Committee: Report on Reopening of Garda Stations: Acting Garda Commissioner (28 Sep 2017)
Alan Farrell: I seek a little clarity because I am not sure the question I asked was answered. There were six stations to be considered in this report when it was commissioned. Is that correct?
- Public Accounts Committee: Report on Reopening of Garda Stations: Acting Garda Commissioner (28 Sep 2017)
Alan Farrell: When I asked Mr. Ó Cualáin whether additional stations were considered, I was clearly referring to stations over and above those six. He said there were four, which means ten stations were under consideration.
- Public Accounts Committee: Report on Reopening of Garda Stations: Acting Garda Commissioner (28 Sep 2017)
Alan Farrell: Such as what I alluded to in terms of where stations should be. Is that-----
- Public Accounts Committee: Report on Reopening of Garda Stations: Acting Garda Commissioner (28 Sep 2017)
Alan Farrell: Does Mr. Ó Cualáin recall how many there were in total, then, from his reading of this report yesterday or today, I assume?

Alan Farrell: Are these new stations, new bricks and mortar, or new locations?
- Public Accounts Committee: Report on Reopening of Garda Stations: Acting Garda Commissioner (28 Sep 2017)

- Public Accounts Committee: Report on Reopening of Garda Stations: Acting Garda Commissioner (28 Sep 2017)

- Public Accounts Committee: Report on Reopening of Garda Stations: Acting Garda Commissioner (28 Sep 2017)
Alan Farrell: However, part of the consideration was that the building happened to be in State ownership, as opposed to there being a policing requirement. Does ownership come into the Assistant Garda Commissioner's work-----

Alan Farrell: -----as head of An Garda Síochána? Is that appropriate?
- Public Accounts Committee: Report on Reopening of Garda Stations: Acting Garda Commissioner (28 Sep 2017)
Alan Farrell: Of course.
- Public Accounts Committee: Report on Reopening of Garda Stations: Acting Garda Commissioner (28 Sep 2017)
Alan Farrell: We will take that for granted. I am just asking whether it is the job of the Assistant Garda Commissioner to present a business case from a financial perspective or from a policing perspective, or is it both?
- Public Accounts Committee: Report on Reopening of Garda Stations: Acting Garda Commissioner (28 Sep 2017)
Alan Farrell: I will ask the question again and be a bit more precise. Does the financial aspect of the location of a station, whether rebuild or new build, as well as the financial implication for the State, form part of the Assistant Garda Commissioner's consideration?
- Public Accounts Committee: Report on Reopening of Garda Stations: Acting Garda Commissioner (28 Sep 2017)
