160. To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality if the 213 extra Garda vehicles that were purchased last year have been delivered to their divisions; if not, the number of vehicles that remain outstanding; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [19600/13]

Decisions in relation to the provision and allocation of Garda vehicles are a matter for the Garda Commissioner in the context of his identified operational demands and in the light of available resources. I am informed by the Garda authorities that all of the patrol vehicles procured in 2012 have been rolled out at this stage. In that connection I would draw the attention of the Deputy to the details I provided to him in my reply to Question No. 967 on 16th April 2013 (Ref: 17638/13).
