Portlaoise Garda Station is currently in the tender stage of renovations.
The new Gardaí Divisional Headquarters for Laois Offaly isn't due to be complete until 2027.
Portlaoise Garda Station will serve as the main centre for Garda operations for the area, but is also currently only in the tender stage of renovation and expansion.
Minister for Public Expenditure, Paschal Donohoe, provided the update, and says there are seven Garda Stations in Laois and Offaly undergoing works.
Independent TD, Carol Nolan, says the reason behind the delay for the Divisional HQ needs to be made public:
