I am informed by the Garda authorities that there are nine recorded incidents of criminal damage to cars at the location concerned since the beginning of 2005. Two culprits have been made amenable for two of the incidents. One culprit is currently charged and before the courts and the second culprit is being dealt with under the juvenile diversion programme.

I am further informed that there is nothing to suggest that a spate of vandalism is occurring at the location mentioned. The location receives and will continue to receive regular and ongoing attention from both mobile and foot patrols.
