Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy will be aware, the detailed allocation of Garda personnel and resources, is a matter for the Garda Commissioner, and I as Minister, have no role in the matter.
I have asked the Garda Commissioner for the specific information requested and when it is to hand I will inform the Deputy accordingly.
The following deferred reply was received under Standing Order 42A
I refer to Parliamentary Question No. 862 for answer on Tuesday 20 June, 2017, in which you requested the cost of recruiting additional Civilians in 2018.
As you will recall, the information you requested could not be obtained in the time available, and I undertook to contact you again.
The Garda authorities have provided the information requested in the following table.
The figures outlined in the following table have been calculated based on an estimated cost per person of €43,000. The precise costs would of course depend on the profile of the personnel to be recruited in terms of their qualifications and level of responsibility within the organisation.
