The provision and allocation of Garda vehicles is a matter for the Garda Commissioner in the context of his identified policing priorities. At Divisional level responsibility for the efficient deployment of Garda vehicles is assigned to the Divisional Officer, who may allocate vehicles between Districts on the basis of operational requirements.
I am informed by the Garda authorities that the number of Garda patrol cars assigned to Carlow District for the periods June 2010, June 2011 and June 2012 is as set out in the attached table:
PERIOD | NUMBER |
June 2010 | 12 |
June 2011 | 12 |
June 2012 | 9 |
