Ms Martina Kenny:

It depends on the time of the day. We provide an after-hours service but other organisations finish at 5 p.m. and that is the end of that. It depends on the time of day. If we know gardaí in the area concerned or have worked with the Garda in that area in the past, the response is amazing. Dublin City Council has an animal welfare unit and that has already proven it is working. Those guys are there until at least 8 p.m. but we will help too. There are gardaí in areas who will help. That is good.
