Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 398 to 400, inclusive, together.
I have been informed by the Garda authorities that while some crime in the areas referred to and surrounding districts in County Wexford can be attributed to criminals travelling from outside the areas in question, there is nothing to suggest that so-called Dublin crime bosses are targeting these districts. Garda management regularly reviews crime statistics and trends with a view to adjusting operational tactics to counter any new and emerging trends.
