I am informed by the Garda authorities that the personnel strength of the Community Policing Unit attached to the R Garda District on 31 December 2010 - 31 December 2012 was as set out in the table below.

The allocation of all resources, including personnel, is a matter entirely for the Garda Commissioner in consultation with his senior management and I have no direct function in the matter.
