50 Deputy John O’Donoghue asked the Minister for Finance the status of the new Castleisland Garda station that is being constructed; the way the project is proceeding; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [46223/10]

The Contractor commenced works on site on 3 August 2010. I can confirm that works are progressing well with demolitions, site set and foundation for the main building all completed. The project has progressed and the form of the main building is now evident. It is expected that the project will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2011.
