The information sought by the Deputy in relation to Gardaí assigned to each station in the Wexford / Wicklow Division is publicly available and can be found at the following link: www.gov.ie/en/publication/66833-garda-workforce/

The Deputy should access the file titled “Garda Members by Division District Station 2009 to 28 February 2025" for a breakdown of total Gardaí numbers for each Garda Station in the Wexford / Wicklow Division.

I am informed that when allocating and transferring Garda members to and from any Division, consideration is given to commitments and undertakings outlined in the Annual Policing Plan and priorities as determined in delivering ‘A Policing Service for The Future’.

I understand that the requirements of all Garda Divisions nationwide are also taken into account, which include:

• Local and national crime trends and workloads;
• Policing arrangements and operational strategies;
• Minimum establishment statistics;
• Local population and trends, geographical area and size;
• Transfer applications, including welfare, personnel issues and concerns.
