As the Deputy will be aware, the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the management and administration of An Garda Síochána, including all matters relating to the recruitment, training and appointment of its members. This responsibility extends to members of the Garda Band. As Minister, I have no role in these matters.
I have been advised by the Garda authorities that, as of 14 March 2024, there are 25 Garda members attached to the Garda band at the ranks of Inspectors and Gardaí.
