I am informed by the Garda authorities that, as of 30 April 2025, there were a total of 118 vehicles attached to the Dublin Metropolitan Region (DMR) West Division, including 97 cars. 44 of those cars were marked and 53 were unmarked. I am further advised that An Garda Síochána cannot provide figures for which vehicles were used operationally on specific dates.

The table below provides a breakdown of the vehicles attached to the DMR West Division, by station, as of 30 April 2025:
