Public Accounts Committee

Appropriation Accounts 2022
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána

9:30 am

Dr. Shawna Coxon:

I appreciate that there is a sentiment around the difference between a chief superintendent and a superintendent. As we are moving in to the operating model across the country, we actually have more superintendents than we have ever had before. We are trying to rationalise what makes sense with respect to chief superintendents across the country. I will certainly take a look at this point. We had a full review of the operating model last year so I know this issue will have been looked at. That is probably why the Deputy got the answer he did. We are trying to make it so that the chief superintendents do not have a burdensome amount of work to do. Everybody wants this and I completely appreciate what the Deputy is saying.
