Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 31 May 2005
383 Cecilia Keaveney asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform when a Garda sergeant will be appointed for a station (details supplied) in County Donegal; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [18138/05]
View answerI have been informed by the Garda authorities, who are responsible for the detailed allocation of resources, including personnel, that there is currently one sergeant allocated to Malin Garda station. I have been further informed that the sergeant at Malin is due to retire from the Garda Síochána on 2 June 2005.
It is the responsibility of the divisional officer for County Donegal to allocate personnel within the division. When this vacancy arises consideration will be given to filling it in conjunction with other similar vacancies when newly promoted sergeants are being allocated.
