Policing Matters: Discussion (Resumed)
2:00 am
Mr. Ronan Slevin:
Depending on the type of incident and its severity, a certain amount of police reaction will be required. Unfortunately, due to the lack of resources we have, it will require moving members from different areas on a temporary basis or bringing people in on overtime. It is without doubt that both of those approaches are occurring on a regular basis. As I said, we do not have the resources at the moment. Unfortunately, I cannot see anything changing in that regard in the near future.
