Reopening Glanworth Garda Station
O’Keeffe asked about reopening the station; Noonan said existing policing was adequate and nearby stations made reopening unwarranted.
asked the Minister for Justice if he will consider reopening Glanworth Garda station, County Cork.
Comment on this
(Limerick East): As the Deputy is aware, it is close on 30 years since there was a Garda station in Glanworth. The Garda authorities consider that the current policing arrangements for the Glanworth area provide a reasonably adequate service and that, given the proximity of the four Garda stations at Fermoy, Kildorrery, Castletownroche and Kilworth, the re-opening of a Garda station in Glanworth would not be warranted.
