Ceist:139 Mr. Cotter asked the Minister for Justice the average age of the members of An Garda Síochána as pertained on 1 January (a) 1980, (b) 1988 and (c) 1991; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
Written Answers. - Garda Age Statistics.
The current average age of members of the Garda Síochána is 38. Records are not maintained in such a way as to give the equivalent statistic in respect of 1 January in the years 1980, 1988 and 1991 and the figures could not be obtained without the commitment of a disproportionate amount of Garda time and resources.
