Mr. Ryan asked the Minister for Justice if he will state in respect of the proposal to erect a Garda station at Ballyfermot, Dublin, whether a site has yet been selected; if so, where, and when building will commence. Minister for Justice (Mr. Haughey) Charles J. Haughey Minister for Justice (Mr. Haughey): A site at Ballyfermot Road has been selected for the new station and the Commissioners of Public Works are taking up with Dublin Corporation the question of its acquisition. Pending the acquisition and survey of the site I cannot give any indication as to when building operations will commence. Mr. Ryan Mr. Ryan Mr. Ryan: Can the Minister tell me the location of the site, as asked for in the original question? Mr. Haughey Mr. Haughey Mr. Haughey: Not at this stage, no. I shall keep the Deputy informed. Mr. Ryan Mr. Ryan Mr. Ryan: If the site has been selected, surely it is possible to say where in Ballyfermot it is? I take it that the Minister has the information in his supplementary brief. I now ask him for the information. I shall not try to beat the local Fianna Fáil cumann for the lease of it. Mr. Haughey Mr. Haughey Mr. Haughey: You might try to do it. Mr. Ryan Mr. Ryan 462 [462] Mr. Ryan: I have not the money. Where is it? Mr. Haughey Mr. Haughey Mr. Haughey: Ballyfermot Road.
