It is paid to 70 members of the force outside of the mountain bike unit. The business case states that it is applicable to members "who have been directed to provide themselves with a bicycle on duty". Where would this apply? If it is to be replaced, could it be replaced by a Segway allowance? According to the media yesterday, many gardaí have been provided with Segways, which is a good development.
