I have been informed by the Garda authorities responsible for the detailed allocation of resources, including personnel, that the personnel strength of the Kerry division as at 18 October 2004 was 264, all ranks. The personnel strength of the Kerry division as at 31 January 1997 was 231, all ranks.

I am further informed that Garda statistics regarding the personnel level in every Garda station within each Garda division only refers back to 31 January 1997. Accordingly, the strength of each Garda station within the Kerry division as at 31 January 1997 and 18 October 2004 is as set out hereunder:
