As the Deputy will appreciate, the Garda Commissioner is primarily responsible for the provision of equipment for An Garda Síochána and I, as Minister, have no direct role in the matter.

I have asked the Garda authorities for the information requested by the Deputy and will revert to him in writing as soon as I have this information to hand.
