Absolutely. Is it fair to say that the Garda will be depending on resources from outside the capital to beef-up the strength of the force in Dublin? By extension, is that not going to result in a situation where other parts of the country are going to be left short, as happened last Thursday as far away as in my own county of Monaghan, where resources had to travel down to assist? By extension, are those areas going to be left short because of the fact that the Commissioner is beefing-up the strength of the force in the capital between now and Christmas? What happens after Christmas?
