Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 25 March 2014
792. Deputy Niall Collins asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he has received the annual report from An Garda Síochána for 2013; when the 2013 report will be published; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13825/14]
View answerSection 46 of the Garda Síochána Act 2005 requires the Garda Commissioner to submit an Annual Report not later than four months after the end of each year on the policing of the State for the previous year. The report is expected within the coming weeks.
The Act also requires me, as the Minister, to lay a copy of the report before the Houses of the Oireachtas as soon as practicable, and not later than 30 days, after receiving the report.
