The programme of replacement and refurbishment of Garda accommodation is based on agreed accommodation priorities which are established by An Garda Síochána. This programme is progressed by An Garda Síochána in co-operation with the Office of Public Works which has responsibility for the provision and maintenance of Garda accommodation. Capital funding for significant refurbishment work is a matter for the Office of Public Works. In addition, funding for other refurbishment works is provided in the Vote of An Garda Síochána. I am advised by the Garda authorities that the annual expenditure from the Garda Vote for Garda maintenance works for the periods requested by the Deputy was as set out in the table.
