As the Deputy will appreciate, the Garda Commissioner is responsible under the law for the management and administration of An Garda Síochána, which includes the deployment of members of An Garda Síochána throughout the State. As Minister, I have no role in this independent function.
The Deputy will also appreciate that the Garda Commissioner assigns Garda members to individual stations, and as such it is not possible to provide the number of Gardaí in County Donegal by electoral area.
However, An Garda Síochána have provided the annual personnel strength of Garda members in the Donegal Division as at 31 December 2011 through to 31 December 2020 and as at 30 June 2021, the most recent date for which statistics are available. This information is outlined in the tables below:

1373. To ask the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality the number of active Garda stations which were fully operational in County Donegal and which now operate on a reduced or part-time basis since 2011, in tabular form; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [40138/21]

I propose to take Questions Nos. 1372 and 1373 together.
I have sought the information requested by the Deputy from An Garda Síochána, but this was not available in time. I will write to the Deputy when the information is to hand.
