Question:

View answer

Written answers

As the Deputy will be aware, the Garda Commissioner is responsible by law for the recruitment and training of Garda members and staff. As Minister, I play no role in this independent function. The Commissioner is also independently responsible for the deployment of An Garda Síochána throughout the State.

I have been advised by the Garda authorities that the tables below show the number of female members in An Garda Síochána by District as of 31/12/2019, 2020 and 2021.
