While the Garda Commissioner is operationally responsible for the allocation of Garda resources, I engage regularly with him to ensure our Gardaí have the resources they need.
The current planned dates for the next three attestations are listed below, it should be noted that these dates are provisional and are subject to change.
• The latest Garda Attestation of intake 243 took place on 6 June 2025.
• The attestation of intake 244 is provisionally planned for 29 August 2025.
• The attestation of intake 245 is provisionally planned for 14 November 2025.
Attestation dates beyond that have yet to be finalised.
