The Garda Commissioner has again given a committment to provide a new Garda station for Laytown.
Drew Harris and Justice Minister Helen McEntee visited the station yesterday evening when the leader of the force made his statement.
Last week, a number of other changes were introduced, which saw Laytown becoming a core-unit response station, operating on a 24/7 basis with four core units.
The commitment from the top of the force comes in the wake of a June 2021 protest led by local woman Tania O’ Neill which saw thousands gather on Bettystown beach to call for a new station.
