I propose to take Questions Nos. 190, 191 and 195 together.
The personnel strength of Tipperary Garda Division on 31 December 1997, 31 December 2002 and 30 November 2007 (the latest date for which figures are readily available) are as set out in the table.
31/12/1997 | 31/12/2002 | 30/11/2007 | |
Tipperary Division | 297 | 314 | 362 |
The Deputy should be aware that Garda Divisional/District boundaries do not necessarily correspond to county or city boundaries.
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 Tipperary Division will be fully considered by him within the overall context of the needs of Garda Divisions throughout the country.
