I propose to take Questions Nos. 242 and 243 together.

On the direction of the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform Harcourt Terrace Garda Station is to be closed and used to procure housing units under the Affordable Housing Initiative.

This Office is currently in discussion with the Garda Authorities in relation to accommodation provision for the personnel who are moving from there. No timescale or costings have been developed. Timescale and costings will be determined on completion of these discussions.
