I am informed by the Garda authorities that in response to a call received, they called to the address of the person concerned. They subsequently carried out a search and patrol of the area concerned but were unable to locate the persons complained of.

I am further informed that the person concerned indicated to the Garda authorities that she did not wish to make a complaint in relation to the matter referred to, and that the purpose of the call was to notify the Gardaí of the incident with a view to dispersing the persons complained of.

I am advised that the Community Garda for the area is in regular contact with the person concerned. The location referred to is covered by the North East Inner City Community Policing Forum.

In addition to foot and mobile patrols from regular and Community Gardaí, the area concerned receives ongoing attention from uniform and plain clothes patrols attached to the Divisional Task Force, including the Traffic and Drugs Units, with a view to ensuring a visible Garda presence.
