Michael McDowell (Dublin South East, Progressive Democrats)

I will make a point to the Deputy concerning an area near enough to home for him. Shankill is not radically different from Bray. The Dargle River is the boundary between one part of Bray and Little Bray and lower Shankill, but they are not radically different when it comes to establishing a Garda command-and-control structure. To suggest otherwise places one at the margins of reality.

I do not accept the anecdote, which I know that the Deputy has told with his tongue in his cheek, and I will not huff and puff about it.
