Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 7 October 2014
293. Deputy Willie O'Dea asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if she will provide the numbers of Garda personnel in the Limerick Garda division in 2011, 2012, 2013 and to date in 2014; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [38052/14]
View answerAs the Deputy will appreciate, the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the distribution of personnel among the Garda Regions, Divisions, and Districts. Garda management keep this distribution under continuing review in the context of crime trends and policing priorities so as to ensure that the best possible use is made of these resources.
I have asked the Garda Commissioner for the information requested and will correspond directly with the Deputy as soon as it is to hand.
