193. To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality his views on the current status of a Garda Station (details supplied) in County Donegal; if there is a threat to its existence; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [24558/13]

The Commissioner's Policing Plan for 2013 sets out details for the closure of 100 Garda stations throughout the country. Moville Garda Station was not listed for closure.

While the Policing plans for 2014 and 2015 have not yet been prepared, I understand, from discussions with the Garda Commissioner, that the current consolidation process will be largely completed by the end of this year and it seems unlikely at this point in time that there will be any further station closures in 2014 and 2015.
