The Office of Public Works (OPW) is preparing to dispose of 33 former Garda stations and repurpose others for state or community use.

It confirmed that over 50 former Garda stations and residences will either be disposed of at auction or transferred to local authorities or local communities for use, in response to parliamentary questions this week.
