Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 21 October 2025
610. Deputy Aengus Ó Snodaigh asked the Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration the number of Gardaí stationed in DMR west in each of the years, 2020 to 2024 and to date in 2025; the number of Gardaí allocated to the Ballyfermot Station for the same period; and the number who were community Gardaí for these years.

View answerIn the interest of transparency, An Garda Síochána publishes information in relation to the allocation of Garda members nationally, which can be found at the following link:

The Deputy should select August 2025 (the latest date for when figures are available) and then select the report titled ‘Garda Members by Division District Station 2009 to 31 of August 2025’
For a breakdown of Community Gardaí by Division, the Deputy should select the report titled 'Community Garda by Division 2008 to 31st August 2025'
The Garda Commissioner is responsible for the management and administration of An Garda Síochána under Section 33 of the Policing, Security and Community Safety Act 2024, which includes the distribution and stationing of Garda personnel throughout the State. I engage regularly with him to ensure An Garda Síochána have the resources they need.
