I wish to inform the Deputy that under the provisions of the Courts Service Act 1998, management of the courts, including the provision of accommodation for court sittings, is the responsibility of the Courts Service which is independent in exercising its functions. However, in order to be of assistance to the Deputy, I have had enquiries made and have been informed by the Service that it has been providing the funding necessary for the ongoing upkeep of the courthouse in Ballyhaunis, including in respect of necessary repairs and maintenance.
