Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (31 Mar 2022)

Has any of those recommendations been implemented?

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (31 Mar 2022)

Alan Dillon: Do performance indicators for 2022 exist within the organisation, and if so, what are they?

Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (31 Mar 2022)

Alan Dillon: These are newly built stations that have been scaled back, which is a concern. My experience is that people are concerned, especially with rural crime on the rise, that there is not a Garda visibility within these towns, and that is something to be very conscious of.
