Written answers

As the Deputy will appreciate, the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the distribution of personnel and I, as Minister, have no direct role in the matter. Garda management keeps this distribution under review in the context of crime trends and policing priorities to ensure optimum use is made of the resources.

The table below shows the number of Gardaí attached to the Garda National Immigration Bureau as of 1st January and 10th December 2018 as provided by the Commissioner.
