The Irish Coast Guard, a Division of my Department, has 45 Units based in 58 coastguard stations. 

There are a number of Coast Guard Units around the coast operating from Rocket Houses, some of which have been identified for upgrade in the Coast Guard Building Programme.

Of these 58 stations: 26 unit buildings have running water, bathroom facilities and internet facilities. 12 unit buildings have running water, bathroom facilities but no internet. 1 unit building has running water but no bathroom or internet facilities. Of the remaining 19 buildings without running water, bathroom or internet facilities, 17 are old Rocket Houses. 10 of these are sub-units or secondary Unit buildings.
