View answerDecisions in relation to the provision and deployment of Garda transport are matters for the Garda Commissioner. I am informed by the Garda authorities that 234 vehicles were withdrawn from service between January and September 2012. In addition, I understand that a list of these vehicles is not readily available and could only be compiled by using Garda resources which are required for other purposes.
