Changing Policing in Ireland Report: Garda Inspectorate
9:30 am
Mr. Robert K. Olson:
No, we did not. That was beyond our remit and we would not have been able to do it. However, the question gives me an opportunity to comment on Garda stations. Nowhere in our report do we recommend the elimination of any stations. What we recommend in regard to the new functional model is the need to use and operate differently the stations in place. We want more officers out of the stations than sitting in them.
