I propose to take Questions Nos. 246 to 265, inclusive, and 267 together.

As the Deputy will appreciate, the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the distribution of Garda resources, including vehicles, among the various Garda Divisions and I, as Minister, have no direct role in the matter.

I understand that the allocation of Garda vehicles is monitored and reviewed by the Garda authorities on a continual basis. The responsibility for the efficient deployment of all official Garda vehicles in each Division is assigned to the Divisional Officer, who may allocate vehicles between stations as required by operational requirements.

The Deputy will be aware that there has been unprecedented Government investment in the Garda fleet in recent years with some €46 million being invested over the lifetime of the Government's Capital Plan 2016 - 2021 to ensure that An Garda Síochána has a modern, effective and fit for purpose fleet.

Below is a table indicating a total of Garda cars for each of the Garda Divisions requested between the years 2010 to 2017.
