I am informed by the Garda Commissioner that the personnel strength of Carrigaline Garda Station as at 31 December 2008, the latest date for which figures are readily available was 19. 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 the station referred to by the Deputy will be fully considered by the Commissioner within the overall context of policing requirements throughout the country.
