To ask the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform if the OPW and An Garda Síochána have identified a site for the development of a new Garda station at Laytown, County Meath; if he will confirm when construction work on the site will commence under the relevant capital programme; the year in which the building will be completed; the estimated total cost of the project; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I wish to inform the Deputy that I have been informed by An Garda Siochána (AGS) that they have recently included Laytown Garda Station on the draft Capital Programme for 2022 – 2030.

AGS are currently preparing a brief of requirements and a business case and will be requesting the Office of Public Works (OPW) to consider the provision of a site in the town suitable for the provision of a new Garda Station.

It is not possible, at this early stage, to provide either a timeframe or a detailed costing for the new Garda Station.
