As the Deputy will appreciate, the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the distribution of personnel among the Garda Regions, Divisions, and Districts. Garda management keep this distribution under continual review in the context of crime trends and policing priorities so as to ensure that the best possible use is made of resources.

With regard to Garda personnel and their rank assigned to the Tipperary Division in 2007 and 2008, this information is currently being collated and I will contact the Deputy directly as soon as the information is to hand.
