-----crime is on the increase, the Minister continues to close Garda stations, take Garda cars away from gardaí and lock them up in the Phoenix Park. The gardaí are supposed to police their areas by using CCTV while sitting in Garda stations in the main towns. It is a hugely cynical exercise by the Minister which I strongly condemn. I have a question for the Leader. Will he invite the Minister for Justice, Equality and Defence who is also the Minister with responsibility for more closures, to come to the House so that we can ask him what is he doing about the policing of our State? I will not even mention what he is doing to the Department of Defence.
