Dail Éireann — 2022-02-17
============================================================

James Browne (FF), Wexford

As of 31 January 2022, the latest date for which figures are available, 298 Garda members were assigned to the Roscommon-Longford division, of whom 92 were assigned to the Longford district. These figures represent an increase of more than 2% in the Roscommon-Longford division since December 2015 and an increase of almost 10% for the Longford district in the same period. Garda members in the division are supported by 44 Garda staff, which is an increase of more than 69% since the end of 2015, when there were 26 Garda staff assigned to the division. Additional Garda staff allow existing gardaí to be redeployed on the ground. The dispersal of An Garda Síochána throughout the country is a matter for the Garda Commissioner and the relevant chief superintendents.
