I have been informed by the Garda Commissioner that the personnel strength of each Garda Station in Meath on 31 December 1998 and 31 December 2008, the latest date for which figures are readily available, was as set out in the table hereunder:

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 allocation of Gardaí to these stations will be fully considered by the Commissioner within the overall context of policing requirements throughout the country.
