I can confirm the totals costs incurred by the Office of Public Works (OPW) on security and maintenance on vacant former Garda Stations for the period from 1/1/2018 to 31/12/2018 was €343,956.43

These costs include any maintenance or other actions considered by OPW as being necessary to protect the structure and value of the property asset and/or for health and safety reasons. A breakdown of the costs is provided below:

Costs year ended 31/12/18
Maintenance€148,438.65
