As the Deputy will appreciate, under the Garda Síochána Act 2005, the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the general management and administration of Garda business, which includes the deployment of members of An Garda Síochána throughout the State. As Minister, I have no role in this independent function.
As of 30 June 2021 there were 351 Gardaí assigned to the Kerry Division and 50 Garda staff, which represents increases of over 17% and 47% respectively since December 2016.
For the Deputy's information, the attached spreadsheet which has been provided to me by the Garda authorities, sets out the number of Gardaí assigned to each District in the Kerry Division at 30 June 2021.
Information in relation to the numbers of Garda members assigned to Kerry Division, from 31 December 2016 up to 31 December 2020, can be found on my Department's website at the following link: www.justice.ie/en/JELR/Pages/Garda_Workforce
Details in relation to the number of Garda civilian staff assigned to Kerry Division for the same period are also available on my Department's website at the following link: justice.ie/en/JELR/Pages/Garda_Staff
