I am sure the Minister is aware that a site was purchased in Ballyheigue six years ago. In view of the fact that Ballyheigue is a summer resort it is essential that there should be a proper Garda barracks. Would the Minister give me an assurance that a new Garda barracks will be constructed in the near future?
