The programme of replacement and refurbishment of Garda accommodation around the country is based on agreed priorities established by An Garda Síochána and it is progressed in close co-operation with the Office of Public Works (OPW), who have responsibility for the provision and maintenance of Garda accommodation. I have been informed by the Garda authorities that a request for tender for the proposed works has been issued by the OPW and it is expected that the relevant contract will be placed later this year.
