Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025) Catherine Connolly: My question on the Irish language arises because An Coimisinéir Teanga did a report and found that An Garda Síochána was not complying with its duty under the language Act. That is the context. It might be looked at.

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025) Catherine Connolly: It is not the witnesses' fault but I note that the joint policing committees have not been replaced. It was a very good function. It was stopped prematurely because it is now a year later. Going back to the €40 million that arose in the context of the question on storage, the figure has emerged and the witnesses are going to come back on it, but what is the range of prosecutions or...

- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025) Catherine Connolly: Then there are the firearms and the drugs themselves. Does the organisation have a value on that at any given time? It is a very good indication of the level of crime and money involved.

- Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025) Catherine Connolly: On the Irish language, I will not dwell on it because the witnesses are coming back to me, but I want to be precise. It arose from an Coimisinéir Teanga's report years ago and related to a situation in Donegal with general applications. The Garda is aware of that.

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025) Catherine Connolly: I ask the witnesses to come back on that. I move to the new National Office for Community Safety. The new Act has just been implemented in the last few months and that is part of the problem, but that new national office is in the Department of justice. Has the Garda liaised with it?

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025) Catherine Connolly: It is ongoing. When I look at that I look at the word "community". When most of us look at police, besides the serious crime and so on, we think of community policing and we are actually begging to have more community gardaí on the road. Will that be a priority?

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025) Catherine Connolly: One final thing. Going back to Covid, the organisation got great praise, and rightly so, and I read all of the authority reports monthly. It was a point where people got back trust in the Garda. On the cars that were purchased at that time, there was a huge number of cars leased, was there not? Could the witnesses clarify the situation in that regard? They have set out how many new cars...
