The programme of replacement and refurbishment of Garda stations is based on accommodation priorities which are established by An Garda Síochána. The programme is advanced in close co-operation with the Office of Public Works, which has responsibility for the provision and maintenance of Garda accommodation.

I have been advised by the Garda authorities that the purchase of a premises for a new Garda station for Glanmire is currently the subject of legal proceedings. Accordingly, I am not in a position to provide any further information in relation to this matter.
