I propose to take Questions Nos. 827 to 829 together.

In the interest of transparency, An Garda Síochána publishes data on the allocation of Gardaí by Division, Station, and rank. This can be found at the following link:

www.garda.ie/en/about-us/our-departments/human-resources-and-people-development/garda-hr-directorate/garda-strength-breakdown-2025/.

The Deputy should select the Garda Workforce figures for July and access the file titled “Garda members by Division District Station 2009 to 31 July 2025” for a breakdown of Gardaí by Garda station going back to 2009.

The Garda Commissioner is responsible for the distribution and stationing of Garda personnel throughout the State under Section 33 of the Policing, Security and Community Safety Act 2024. As Minister, I have no role in these independent functions.

Since the completion of the roll out of the Garda Operating Model to all 21 Garda Divisions earlier this year, Garda Divisions are the primary geographic breakdown of the service and the term 'District' is no longer in operational use. The published information still retains the term 'district' for ease of comparison with historical data.
