Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Deputy Martin made the point, and I agree with him, that Garda presence matters. Gardaí are far more visible when in the community than sitting in a 100 year old Garda station for two hours, waiting to sign unemployment or dole forms. The communications that Fianna Fáil left behind them were a Stone Age facility but that is all being replaced.
