Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 14 December 2022
227. Deputy Neale Richmond asked the Minister for Justice the number of gardaí who have exited the force due to injury per county in each of the years 2015 to 2021 and to date in 2022; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [62514/22]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs the Deputy will be aware, under the Garda Síochána Act 2005 (as amended), the Garda Commissioner is responsible for all matters relating to recruitment and personnel within An Garda Síochána. As Minister, I have no role in such matters.
I am advised by the Garda authorities that the records kept in relation to the number of members who leave the organisation on medical grounds does not capture the nature of those grounds.
Accordingly I regret that the information sought by the Deputy is not readily available.
