I agree with the Commissioner when he refers to the last chapter of Mr. Justice Charleton's report which sets out the obligations of members of An Garda Síochána. That is very useful. The report states one of the most important obligations is to be visible. The Commissioner mentions this in his statement. What can he do to increase the Garda's visibility and to what extent is he aware of the number of members of the force out among the general public on any day of the week?
