47 Mr. McGinley asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if the gardaí transferred from County Donegal resulting from the Morris tribunal report will be replaced; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [21324/05]
View answerI am informed by the Garda authorities, who are responsible for the detailed allocation of resources, including personnel, that during each allocation of probationer gardaí cognisance is taken of vacancies which arise as a result of transfers or retirements.
The needs of the Donegal division will be fully considered within the context of the needs of Garda divisions throughout the country during future allocations of probationer gardaí and, where possible, by way of permanent transfer of members to the division.
