As the Deputy will be aware, Diplomatic Missions may from time to time issue notices to their citizens with regard to personal safety and related matters.

In the context of policing of events, the arrangements and measures taken are first and foremost matters for the Garda authorities, who have operational responsibility in this regard.

The Deputy will appreciate that for reasons relating to the proper operation of security measures, communications between An Garda Síochána and Diplomatic Missions may not be disclosed.
