As the Deputy will be aware, the Garda Commissioner is responsible for the management and administration of Garda business under Section 26 of the Garda Síochána Act 2005. The Commissioner is also responsible for compiling the annual report under the Act and submitting the report to the independent Policing Authority for their consideration.
The Policing Authority has recently approved the Garda Annual Report for 2021 and has submitted it to me as required. The Report is currently being considered by officials within my Department. The Report will be brought to Government and then laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas in the near future.
