The provision and allocation of Garda vehicles is a matter for the Garda Commissioner in the context of his identified policing priorities. At Divisional level responsibility for the efficient deployment of Garda vehicles is assigned to the Divisional Officer, who may allocate vehicles between Districts on the basis of operational requirements.
