| *Clondalkin and Tallaght were not district headquarters until after 2000 and therefore the figures shown for 2000 are for the then District headquarters of Ballyfermot and Rathfarnham respectively. |
I have requested the information on Centralised Units at National, Regional and Divisional level from the Commissioner, and as soon as this information is to hand I will forward it to the Deputy directly.
