I have been informed by the Garda Commissioner that on 31 October 2007, the latest date for which figures are readily available, the personnel strength of Pettigo Garda Station, County Donegal was one. There is no official vehicle currently allocated to Pettigo. It is the responsibility of the Garda Commissioner to allocate personnel throughout the force taking everything into account. The situation will be kept under review and when additional personnel next become available the needs of the Pettigo Garda Station will be fully considered by him within the overall context of the needs of Garda Stations throughout the country.
