- Garda Strength (20 Sep 2011)
Dara Calleary: I thank the Minister for his reply. I accept that it was a decision of the previous Government to agree to the reduction of the targets but that was done on the basis of record investment in Garda numbers by that Government over a long number of years, and that was the reason there are 14,100 today. During the 1980s when the Minister for Finance, Deputy Noonan, was Minister for Justice, and...
- Garda Strength (20 Sep 2011)
Dara Calleary: The Minister should answer the questions. He is the one who said the criminals would celebrate.

- Garda Strength (20 Sep 2011)
Dara Calleary: At the end of November the Minister will be in a position to know the full numbers of gardaà retiring by the end of February. When does he envisage the Commissioner will be in a position to advise on potential closures or the reorganisation of the force? Will it be in the new year or before then?

- Legal Aid Service (20 Sep 2011)
Dara Calleary: I welcome the engagement that has been announced and note the Minister outlined the membership of that task force and when he expects a report. He sometimes reminds me of a disc jockey from the 1980s who continually plays the same record, thereby keeping happy the fan base. There have been reports from an organisation called the Criminal Law Practitioners Association, which appears to have...
- Legal Aid Service (20 Sep 2011)
Dara Calleary: The Minister keeps throwing out those little grenades. He had no difficulty in finding â¬30 million in his Department for the Garda overtime for the visits of the Queen and President Obama, and we have yet to see from where he found it. If he wants to look for money, he is able to find it.
- Legal Aid Service (20 Sep 2011)
Dara Calleary: I thank the Minister for that information. This is purely a follow up question to a discussion we had on this matter prior to the summer recess. There was agreement among everyone concerned that this scheme would be used. Am I to take it that an intern from JobBridge will be placed in every centre throughout the country at the end of this process? Will the board consider the making of...
- Prison Inspection Reports (20 Sep 2011)
Dara Calleary: I endorse the Minister's remarks about Judge Reilly. Has the Minister performed a similar exercise with the Prison Service, as is under way with the Garda Commissioner, with regard to impending retirements? What will be the likely impact of those retirements on the service or on the Minister's plans for it?
- Crime Prevention (20 Sep 2011)
Dara Calleary: I agree with the Minister on the Garda drug find. Considerable work is being done in this regard at local level. I welcome, in particular, the use of asset profiling. Is the Minister satisfied that legislation to assist the Garda in following up on this type of work is sufficiently strong and favours the Garda rather than those who are being profiled?
- Commercial Rents (20 Sep 2011)
Dara Calleary: Question 61: To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality the position regarding the issue of upward only rent reviews on existing commercial leases; when we can expect a proposal from him; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [24669/11]
- Commercial Rents (20 Sep 2011)
Dara Calleary: Will the Minister provide a flavour of the outline proposals? I understand they have been discussed informally with some representative organisations of business, yet the Oireachtas has not had sight of them. Are the Minister and Attorney General singing from the same hymn sheet on this issue or are there differences of opinion between them, significant or otherwise? The question was...
- Commercial Rents (20 Sep 2011)
Dara Calleary: While the Minister may not sing hymns, he has some good broken records in his collection. Will he be required to consult the troika on the provisions of the Bill?
