'Courthouse not fit for purpose'
Justice Minister Charlie Flanagan has indicated that it will be difficult to accommodate the required 'state of the art' facilities needed at Tralee Courthouse in its current location on Ashe Street. He described the current courthouse as 'dilapidated' and 'not fit for purpose' following a visit to the Tralee Courthouse complex on Monday evening, and he said he would make a decision on the future of the building by the end of next year. He also re-iterated at a media briefing in Tralee on Monday that he would abolish the court poor box as soon as possible.
