Tralee Courthouse.

THE Minister for Justice and Equality, Frances Fitzgerald, says the State has identified a location for a new Courthouse in Tralee.

The site, which is in State ownership, will not be at the court’s current location on Ashe Street and the Courts Service is assessing the site to establish whether it’s suitable for a courthouse.

The Minister told Kerry TD Michael Healy-Rae, that the provision of a new courthouse for Tralee depends on securing an alternative site and the availability of funding.

She says she’s aware it’s not possible to improve facilities in existing courthouse on Ashe Street, which has no wheelchair access.
