Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 13 March 2012
90 Deputy Arthur Spring asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he will assign a population to Tarbert, County Kerry, using the same criteria as those used to assign a population to Moyvane and Ballylongford, County Kerry, in the fact sheet for closures of rural Garda stations released by him; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13481/12]
View answerPopulation figures for Moyvane and Ballylongford were based on information ascertained from the 2006 Census. As Tarbert Garda Station was not a station which was identified for closure in the policing plan for 2012, the question of assessing the population covered by that station did not arise. The population of the Tarbert area is available from the Central Statistics Office website at www.cso.ie.
