I am informed by the Garda authorities that statistics relating to Garda response times for call-outs in the Meath Division are not readily available as incidents referred to the Divisional Control Room are currently manually recorded.

I have been advised by the Garda authorities that the highest importance is given to emergency calls in the Meath Division and that they are responded to on a priority basis.

The Garda authorities have also informed me that the system for dealing with emergency calls in the Meath Division is kept under on-going review and that they are satisfied that the current service is effective in delivering efficient arrangements to the community.
