I wish to inform the Deputy that my Department has had the need to contact An Garda Síochána on a number of occasions from 2020 to date due to verbal, written and physical threats being addressed to staff working within this Department during the course of carrying out their duties.
The assistance of An Garda Síochána in relation to these matters is greatly appreciated as we ensure that we have a safe place of work for our staff.
