I am informed by the Garda Commissioner that as of 28 February 2009, the latest date for which figures are readily available, the personnel strengths of the Garda Divisions in Cork are as set out in the table below. There are three divisions in County Cork namely, Cork City, Cork North and Cork West.

Resource levels are monitored on an ongoing basis by local and senior Garda Management in each District and Division, in conjunction with crime trends and other demands made on An Garda Síochána. The situation will be kept under review and the needs of the Division referred to by the Deputy will be fully considered within the overall context of the needs of Garda stations throughout the country.
