Mr. Mallon

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what proposals there are to(a) refurbish existing fire stations and (b) to build purpose-built fire stations in Northern Ireland; and what is the proposed start date for each project.

Mr. Needham

The Fire Authority for Northern Ireland's current works programme does not include any projects for refurbishing existing fire stations. It does, however, make provision for the following purpose-built fire stations:

Location Proposed start date 1992
Glengormley January
Crossmaglen February
Carryduff November

In addition the authority will be providing prefabricated buildings for new retained fire stations at Dromore, Co. Tyrone and Ballywalter, Co. Down. The proposed start dates for these are February 1992 and June 1992 respectively.
