On the issue of Garda stations, I understood Garda management was to conduct an impact analysis in the areas where they close Garda stations. Some 139 Garda stations were closed throughout the country. However, that impact analysis was not carried out. Has the Garda Inspectorate examined the impact of the closure of Garda stations in these communities or at how the policing service has been affected as a result or at the impact on crime levels? Has it done any analysis of that or does it propose to do so?
