I am informed by the Garda authorities that the total cost to date, including salaries, of the Garda policing operation at the proposed Shell refinery site at Bellanaboy, Co. Mayo, is approximately €8.1 million.

I am further informed that there is in place a Garda policing plan within the Garda Division in respect of the Garda Síochána's statutory duty to prevent breaches of the criminal law at Bellanaboy. The allocation of resources to this policing plan is closely monitored and kept under constant review by local senior Garda management.
