As the Deputy will be aware, under the Garda Síochána Act 2005 (as amended), the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the management and administration of An Garda Síochána. This includes the distribution of resources across the various Garda Divisions. As Minister, I have no direct role in this matter.
The table below, which has been provided to me by the Garda authorities, sets out the allocation of mountain bikes by district within the Tipperary Division.
