Written answers

Minister for Justice

As the Deputy will be aware, under the Garda Síochána Act 2005 (as amended), the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the administration and management of An Garda Síochána, including management of garda staffing at each divisional protective services unit.

I have sought the information requested by the Deputy from An Garda Síochána.

Regrettably this information was not available in time, I will write to the Deputy directly once it is to hand.
