I propose to take Questions Nos. 915 to 920, inclusive, together.

I have been informed by the Garda Commissioner that the personnel strength of Fitzgibbon Street and Whitehall Garda Stations and Tullamore Garda District, broken down by rank on 31 March and 31 August 2008, the latest date for which figures are readily available, was as set out in the following table:

The Deputy will appreciate that, as with any large organisation, on any given day, the personnel strength of Garda divisions and stations may fluctuate due, for example, to promotions, retirements and transfers. It is the responsibility of the Garda Commissioner to allocate personnel throughout the Force taking everything into account. In that regard, the needs of the Garda Stations referred to by the Deputy will be fully considered by the Commissioner within the overall context of the needs of Garda Stations and Divisions throughout the country.
