An unprecedented sum of €1.6 billion has been made available in the budget of An Garda Síochána.

My understanding from the Garda Commissioner is that in excess of 200 new vehicles have come on stream this year. This issue could be pursued by the local community in County Louth with its joint policing committee. However, I keep in close contact with the Garda senior management team and am happy to pass on the concerns of the Deputies.
