I am informed by the Garda authorities that local Garda management is aware of two incidents of criminal damage in the area concerned during 2007. Both incidents are under active Garda investigation.
I am further informed by the Garda authorities that the area referred to is in Raheny Garda District and is patrolled by Garda foot and mobile patrols. Members of the local Community Policing Unit are also allocated to this area and liaise with the local community providing crime prevention and security advice.
Additional Garda patrols, including patrols by the District patrol car, District Detective and Drug Units, the Community Policing Unit and the Mountain Bike Units have been directed to pay particular attention to this area.
Current policing policy in the area is predicated on the prevention of crime, including crimes of violence against persons and property, the prevention of public order offences and the maintenance of an environment conducive to the improvement of the quality of life of the residents. This strategy is, and will continue to be, central to the delivery of the policing service in this area.
