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 (OPW), which has responsibility for the provision and maintenance of Garda accommodation.

With regard to an update on the construction of a new Garda station in Glanmire, Co. Cork the position was outlined to the Deputy in Parliamentary Question No. 397 on Wednesday 9th July, 2014.

With regard to refurbishment of the existing Garda station in Glanmire I have been advised that maintenance works to the station were carried in 2013 by the OPW on foot of a request from An Garda Síochána.
