asked the Minister for Justice if he will state the number of members of the Garda Síochána, in each rank, who were serving in the Dublin metropolitan area on January 1st in each of the years from 1940 to 1950.

As the information asked for is set out in the form of a tabular statement, I propose, with the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, to have it included in the Official Report.

The statement is as follows:—
