The number of attested members of the Garda Reserve as at 31st July 2009 was 405. The number of Garda Reserves in training on that date was 151. The Government is strongly committed to the development of the Reserve. Recruitment to the Reserve is continuing and regular promotional campaigns to attract Reserve members are being undertaken. The moratorium on recruitment and appointments in the public service does not apply to the Garda Reserve.
