I propose to take Questions Nos. 276 and 319 together.

The Commissioners of Public Works have agreed terms with the vendors for the purchase of a strip of land to the rear of Dunmanway Garda Station. The Chief State Solicitor awaits confirmation of title from the vendor's solicitors. It is essential that contracts be signed in advance of any redevelopment of the existing Garda Station. The Commissioners of Public Works have also advertised both nationally and locally for a greenfield site in Dunmanway. The closing date for receipt of proposals is 30th March 2007.
