Ceist:

367 Cecilia Keaveney asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the number of gardaí stationed in Carndonagh, County Donegal, in each of the years 1980, 1985, 1990, 1995 and 1999; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22310/99]

I propose to take Questions Nos. 364 to 367, inclusive, together.

The Garda authorities who are responsible for the detailed deployment of Garda personnel and resources to individual areas have advised me that Moville, Burnfoot, Buncrana and Carndonagh Garda stations are all part of Buncrana Garda district.

The Garda authorities have expressed concern, and I share that concern, about providing the type of detailed information sought by the Deputy on the grounds of security and in the interest of crime prevention generally. In the circumstances, I propose to provide the Deputy with information on the personnel strength in Buncrana Garda district for the years in question.
