Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 7 July 2015
271. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the extent to which the total number of gardaí available for duty throughout each Garda Síochána division and district in County Kildare continues to be adequate to meet the demand, with particular reference to particular locations of increased criminal activity; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [27622/15]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy will appreciate, the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the distribution of personnel, among the Garda Regions, Divisions, and Districts. Garda management keep this distribution under continuing review taking into account crime trends and policing priorities so as to ensure that the best possible use is made of these resources.
I have been informed by the Garda Commissioner that the personnel strength of Kildare Garda Division by District and station as of the 31 May 2015, the latest date for which figures are readily available, are as set out in the following table. The Kildare Garda Division also has 39 Garda Reserves and 28 Civilians attached to the Division.
