Section 15(3) of the Garda Síochána Act 2005 provides that a member of the Garda Reserve has, while on duty, the same powers, immunities, privileges and duties as a person appointed to the rank of Garda. This reflects the functions of the Reserve and I have no proposals to amend section 15(3) of the 2005 Act.
