Crime Levels: Statements.
We have had problems in our area. The Minister is familiar with the cases of Garda superintendents arriving in certain towns only to leave again just two or three months later, as well as the many judges who are waiting to retire. The phenomenon of politically-appointed judges does not help the system. GardaĆ in Ballaghadereen, as in every other town with a disco, are fighting for extra resources but cannot get them. The trouble will not be nipped in the bud unless extra resources are provided.
