52. Deputy Rose Conway-Walsh asked the Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration the number of members of An Garda Síochána who have protection orders or barring orders against them; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [54225/25]
View answerUnder section 33 of the Policing Security and Community Safety Act 2024 the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the management and administration of An Garda Síochána which includes all internal HR matters and the maintenance of Garda discipline. Under section 34 of the Act, the Commissioner is independent in the performance of his functions.
I have sought the information requested by the Deputy and I am advised by the Garda authorities that, as of 6 October 2025, there are currently 10 members of An Garda Síochána who have protection orders or barring orders against them.
