That is very welcome news. It is an issue that has been raised at a number of meetings I have attended. I appreciate the Minister cannot tell us where the cars will be deployed but he would know from his dealings with the Garda Commissioner the blackspots where the Garda cars are needed most. Can he clarify that those areas and divisions that have lost Garda vehicles will have those vehicles replaced or are the new vehicles to be deployed differently? If a certain rural area has lost a number of vehicles, will they be replaced with a number of vehicles adequate to cover the number lost?
