In April 2007, my Department approved a proposal by Cork County Council to invite tenders for the provision of a new fire station at Youghal, Co Cork.

The commencement date and overall cost of the development will not become clear until the tender process is completed by the fire authority.

My Department meets 100% of the capital cost of the construction of fire station projects provided value for money is obtained and relevant procurement procedures have been followed.
