Alan Shatter (Dublin South, Fine Gael)

In the ongoing issue of ensuring maximum efficiencies, there will be a look at the current structure of the Garda force to determine whether further efficiencies can be effected and resources targeted in a manner that is to the benefit of the Garda and the general community. That is ongoing work that will continue during the course of this year both within the force and in the context of any other structure that may be put in place.
