On the Garda Reserve, I did not hear anyone mention it today or numbers or figures. Is Mr. Harris supportive of the Garda Reserve? Does he think it plays an important part in the system? Should its numbers be increased or kept at the current level? Is it being used as a stepping stone into An Garda Síochána?
