I had asked what policy analysis had been carried out. That was a recommendation of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. I have the greatest respect for An Garda. I want to see more gardaí on the street and out among the communities. To do that, we have to use finances effectively. The money has to be allocated appropriately. I am not making an issue of overtime. I ask the Minister and the Department what policy analysis, as recommended by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform, has been carried out?
