I am informed by the Garda authorities that local Garda management is aware of the anti-social behaviour problems at the location referred to by the Deputy. I am also informed that local Garda management held a meeting with the local residents to discuss their concerns and another meeting with the residents and Dublin City Council is due to be held in the near future to further advance the matter.

I understand that two community gardaí are assigned to patrol the area, in addition to daily foot and mobile patrols. I am assured that local Garda management will ensure that a concentrated visible presence is maintained in this area.
