Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 8 May 2008
521 Deputy John O’Mahony asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the Garda stations that have been closed in County Mayo from 2000 to date in 2008 and the year each was closed; the Garda stations in County Mayo that are deemed part time and the hours they are open; the full time Garda stations in County Mayo; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17638/08]
View answerNo Garda Stations in County Mayo have been closed in the period referred to by the Deputy. In accordance with the provisions of the Garda Síochána Acts 2005 to 2007, decisions on opening or closing Garda stations are a matter in the first instance for the Garda Commissioner to take in the context of the Annual Policing Plan.
The opening hours of Garda Stations in the Mayo Division are dependent on manpower availability on a daily basis. An increase in the opening hours of these Stations would necessitate the employment of additional Garda personnel on indoor administrative duties who may be more effectively employed on outdoor policing duties. The opening hours of all Garda Stations in Mayo are as listed in the following table.
