As the Deputy will be aware, An Garda Síochána has in place measures to address difficulties which arise with respect to public disorder and anti-social behaviour generally including the designation of certain areas as hotspots for such criminality with additional patrols directed accordingly. I have requested a report from the Garda authorities in relation to the specific circumstances described by him and will contact the Deputy directly as soon as the report is to hand.
