I am committed to ensuring that An Garda Síochána has the resources it needs to fight crime and a strengthened, well-resourced Garda organisation is central to this policy.
599 Gardaí attested from the Garda College across 2024. 423 have attested so far in 2025 with a further attestation scheduled for later this year.
The table below outlines the number who attested in each relevant month across 2024 and so far in 2025.
Attestation date | Number Attested |
---|---|
March 2024 | 165 |
June 2024 | 157 |
September 2024 | 108 |
December 2024 | 169 |
March 2025 | 149 |
June 2025 | 120 |
