The Deputy will be aware that the Office of Public Works has responsibility for the provision, refurbishment and maintenance of Garda buildings, including Garda stations. In all cases the Office of Public Works consults closely with the Garda authorities. I am informed that the Office of Public Works is at present finalising the framework and scoping of works for the engagement of a design team for the new Garda Station at Ballinhassig. I can assure the Deputy that the works will be brought forward with all due haste.
