However, sometimes it is often a question of the more suburban areas of Dublin. When the very serious incident happened, many gardaí in my area and surrounding areas were taken to the inner city to have a presence, leaving our areas with a dearth. I have mentioned several times that if I am aware of redeployment from my area when there is a serious incident elsewhere, the drug dealers, including those dealing openly, will be aware of it too and behave accordingly. That happens.
