The programme of replacement and refurbishment of Garda accommodation around the country is progressed by the Garda Authorities working in close co-operation with the Office of Public Works (OPW), who have the responsibility for the provision and maintenance of Garda accommodation. I am informed by the Garda authorities that the Office of Public Works is currently examining options for the provision of a new Garda station at the location referred to by the Deputy. This matter will be progressed in the context of An Garda Síochána's identified accommodation priorities and in the light of available resources.
