I have outlined the position with regard to the creation of the new Garda Division for Kildare in response to Parliamentary Question 33251/08 of 2 October.

I am advised by the Garda authorities that a project board under the chairmanship of the Divisional officer of the Carlow/Kildare Division is progressing all aspects of the establishment of the new Division including the smooth transition to the new Division together with human resource, transport and technical requirements so that service delivery to the community is maintained to the highest standard.
