The Deputy will be aware that the allocation of resources is a matter for the Garda Commissioner and one in which I have no function. While it would not be appropriate to comment on any ongoing operational matters, I can inform the Deputy that Operation Clean Tram is a specific operation involving liaison between Veolia Transport Security and An Garda Síochána and involves LUAS Security Ticket Checkers being accompanied by members of An Garda Síochána on random patrols. These patrols will generally be at peak night time and are part of the high visibility initiative over the Christmas and New Year period.
