The Deputy will be aware that the Commissioner is responsible for the detailed allocation of resources, including personnel, throughout the organisation and I have no direct function in the matter. This allocation of resources is constantly monitored in the context of crime trends, policing needs and other operational strategies in place on a District, Divisional and Regional level to ensure optimum use is made of Garda resources and the best possible Garda service is provided to the public.
I have been informed by the Garda authorities that the personnel strength of each Garda District together with the Divisional resources in the Tipperary Garda Division on 28 February 2011 and on 29 February 2012 was as set out in the following table:
District | 28/02/11 | 29/02/12 |
---|---|---|
Cahir | 62 | 66 |
Clonmel | 72 | 69 |
Nenagh | 61 | 59 |
Templemore | 64 | 65 |
Thurles | 89 | 83 |
Tipperary Town | 37 | 34 |
Divisional resources | ||
Garda Reserves | 26 | 32 |
Civilian staff | 35 | 35 |
