I am informed by the Garda authorities that the area in question is covered by gardaí from Raheny Garda station and is the subject of a policing plan, involving high visibility foot and mobile patrols. These are augmented by patrols from the district detective unit, divisional crime task force and traffic unit.
I understand that as part of the policing plan for the area concerned local gardaí are liaising with Dublin City Council, as is the case in any area where specific problems are being experienced.
I am also informed that a number of juveniles who were involved in incidents of anti-social behaviour in the area referred to are being dealt with under the Garda juvenile diversion programme.
