I move amendment No. 1:

To delete all words after "the robbery of farming machinery and equipment" and substitute the following:

"- greater powers and scope to be given to joint policing committees, as well as increasing their numbers, in order to ensure greater feedback from communities to the

Garda; and

- reinvestment in the national model of community policing, and a reverse of the dramatic fall in numbers of dedicated community gardaí assisting our communities, who play a crucial role in assisting community alert schemes."

Amendment put:

The Dáil divided: Tá, 41; Níl, 96; Staon, 0.
