The Deputy will be aware that, under the Garda Síochána Act 2005 (as amended), the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the management and administration of An Garda Síochána. This includes the management of the Garda Fleet. The allocation of Garda resources is a matter for the Commissioner, in light of identified operational demands. As Minister, I have no role in these independent functions.
I have contacted the Garda authorities for the information requested by the Deputy, and am advised that the table below outlines the number of mountain bikes allocated to each District within the Meath Garda Division.
