As the Deputy will be aware, under the provisions of the Courts Service Act 1998, management of the courts, including the provision of accommodation for court sittings, is the responsibility of the Courts Service which is independent in exercising its functions.

However, in order to be of assistance to the Deputy, I have had enquiries made and the Courts Service has informed me that remedial and maintenance works were carried out on Carndonagh Courthouse in 2010. The Courts Service has also informed me that while there are no immediate plans to refurbish Carndonagh Courthouse, the Courts Service keeps the condition of its buildings under constant review to ensure they are maintained as well as possible within available resources.
