Danny Healy-Rae (Kerry, Independent) | Oireachtas source

Before the controversy over emails in the Department of Justice and Equality there was a proposal to reopen six rural Garda stations. That commitment is certainly in the programme for Government. The Taoiseach has said there is a proposal to open three Garda stations in Dublin but Dublin is not rural. In light of the level of rural crime, I ask the Taoiseach to reopen a Garda station on each side of the Kenmare River to prevent the importation of drugs and progress the apprehension of criminals in that vast countryside.
