Essentially, the number of gardaí is relatively small in the context of a very big area. Deputy Carroll MacNeill talked about the legislation. Legislation is one thing while the actual delivery of the terms of that legislation is another. This agency cannot do its work. It has been frustrated in doing its work because it has not had the gardaí. I am really trying to find out where the blockage is.
