I absolutely accept this, and I have seen the work done in the north-east inner city. There are other areas where the illegal drug industry has agency capture of communities. Ballymun and Finglas are two of those areas. The Commissioner has already considered the Ballymun - A Brighter Future report. The assistant commissioner for Dublin has met me to discuss it. I ask the Commissioner to revisit the report in order to examine it and perhaps respond to me.

I want to correct the exact Garda numbers, because I would not like to mislead anyone in the context of the Official Report. There are 2.3 gardaí per 1,000 population in my area. The figure is 2.8 in Ballymun. If we take out the 45 gardaí from the airport, it is 2.1 gardaí per 1,000. I wanted to make sure the numbers are correct.
