I propose to take Questions Nos. 391 to 394, inclusive, together.

The Deputy will be aware that the Garda Commissioner is by law responsible for the management of An Garda Síochána, including personnel matters and deployment of resources. As Minister, I have no role in these matters. I am assured, 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 am informed by the Garda authorities that the number of Gardaí stationed in the requested Garda Stations as of 30 September 2020 is as follows:

I am advised by the Garda authorities that Garda management does not retain an official record of the number of car parking spaces available at each Garda Station.

The Deputy may wish to know that detailed information in relation to Garda numbers is available on my Department’s website. This information is updated every month with the latest data provided by An Garda Síochána. Please note that this information currently reflects the position as at 31 August 2020 and will be updated to reflect the position at end September 2020 in the coming days.
