View answerAs the Deputy will be aware 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 taking into account crime trends and policing priorities so as to ensure that the best possible use is made of these resources.
I have received the information requested from the Garda Commissioner in relation to the number of Garda stations and the number of Gardaí serving in each Garda Síochána Station and each Garda Síochána District in each of the years 2007 to 2014 and on the 30 November 2015, the latest dates for which figures are readily available. I have arranged that this information which is set out in spreadsheets be sent to the Deputy directly.
