Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 13 July 2016
88. Deputy Jim O'Callaghan asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality the number of Garda Síochána stations in the Dublin metropolitan region which are not open on a 24-hour basis but which have a garda present for the purposes of minding the station during the hours when it is closed in tabular form. [21434/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe Deputy will appreciate that decisions in relation to Garda station opening hours are a matter for the Garda Commissioner and I, as Minister, have no direct role in the matter.
I am advised by the Garda authorities that there are thirteen Garda stations in the Dublin Metropolitan Region which are currently not open to the public 24-hours a day, however Garda personnel allocated to those stations are deployed on a 24-hour basis, including the period the Garda Station is closed to the public. The following table details the opening hours of the stations concerned:
