As the Deputy will be aware, under the Garda Síochána Act 2005 (as amended), the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the administration and management of An Garda Síochána, including all internal HR management issues. As Minister, I have no role in such matters.
I have been informed by the Garda authorities that 12 Gardaí have resigned in 2023 as of 31 January, the latest date for which figures are currently available.
