Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality
Garda Reform and Related Issues: Discussion
Mr. John Twomey:
The points made about restructuring were addressed earlier.
On the investigation of crime, we have national and regional units. At all times they are deployed to support local, district and divisional units, where required. In the cases referred to, national resources have been allocated to support local units. Additional resources were provided on a permanent basis in the area in question to deal with the problem. It is an ongoing issue that is dealt with daily.
