As the Deputy will appreciate, the Office of Public Works (OPW) has responsibility for the provision and maintenance of Garda accommodation. Works in relation to Garda accommodation are progressed by the Garda authorities working in close cooperation with the OPW.
The current Garda Building and Refurbishment Programme which runs to 2021 is based on agreed Garda priorities and covers over 30 locations around the country, supported by significant Exchequer funding across the Garda and OPW Votes. While a new station in Clongriffin is not part of the current programme, I understand from An Garda Síochána that proposals for a new station will be considered as part of the next Garda accommodation programme. In the meantime I am further advised that local Garda management have a policing plan for the District in question which incorporates a weekly Garda Clinic in the area, operated by the Community Policing Unit from Coolock. This includes regular liaison meetings with resident groups to deal with policing matters.
