Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 25 October 2022
559. Deputy Jim O'Callaghan asked the Minister for Justice further to Parliamentary Question No. 1442 of 8 September 2022, if she has received the necessary information from the Garda authorities; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [53005/22]
View answerI understand that Parliamentary Question No. 1442 of 8 September 2022 asks when the next recruitment campaign for the Garda band will commence.
As the Deputy is aware, the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the management and administration of An Garda Síochána, including all matters relating to the Garda Band. As Minister, I have no role in these matters.
I understand that no decision has been taken as yet in relation to the timing of a competition to provide for future recruitment to the Garda Band.
