461. Deputy Clare Daly asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the number of Garda staff who were co-located with staff provided by a company (details supplied) in 2016 and who functioned as corresponding resources as per the terms of the 2016 contract for the provision of skilled resources by the company.

Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy will appreciate, decisions in relation to the allocation and management of Garda equipment and resources, including ICT, are a matter for the Garda Commissioner. As Minister, I have no direct role in the matter.
I am informed by the Garda authorities that 14 sworn and unsworn Garda members were co-located with staff provided by the company referred to in 2016.
I am further informed that a number of other contract staff would have worked with staff from the referred to company as part of extended multi-disciplinary groups in delivering services to users, but would not have been co-located when doing so.
