Question 638: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform further to his reply to Parliamentary Question No. 1227 of 30 January 2008 in which he states that the future of McCurtain Street Garda Station would be a matter for consideration by the Garda authorities, if he will reconsider the contents of his response in view of the fact that the station has been closed for two years.

I refer to Parliamentary Question No. 1227 of 30th January 2008 regarding the future of McCurtain Street Garda Station. Personnel who were originally assigned to McCurtain Street were subsequently re-assigned to Watercourse Road station. As outlined in the 2008 Annual Policing Plan, it is intended to amalgamate Watercourse and Mallow Road stations. As indicated in my reply, the future of McCurtain Street Garda Station is a matter for consideration by the Garda Authorities and I expect that this will be considered in the context of the amalgamation outlined above and in accordance with the Annual Policing plans.
