Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 15 October 2019
288. Deputy Jim O'Callaghan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the number of gardaí by rank in the domestic abuse intervention unit in the north Dublin Garda division as of 2 October 2019; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [42136/19]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy will appreciate, the management and efficient use of Garda resources is the responsibility of the Garda Commissioner. This includes responsibility for deployment of personnel. As Minister, I have no direct role in these matters. I understand, however, that Garda management keeps the distribution of resources under continual review in the context of crime trends and policing priorities, to ensure their optimum use.
I have requested information on this matter from the Garda authorities and I will write to the Deputy directly when I receive it.
