Midlands Garda Division To Alter Following Review

Wednesday, 16 August 2023 12:04

Certain three-county divisions are being re-configured.

A midlands Garda Division is changing.

Kildare is moving out of the Laois Offaly Garda Division after the three counties were merged in 2019.

The Lily White County will now be joined with Carlow.

Gardaí say it will support a more balance level of service.

According to a Garda spokesperson: "The revised Divisional structures will most effectively deliver the benefits of the Operating Model by supporting a more balanced level of service demand across the Divisions. It will also increase the capacity of Divisional Management teams allowing for effective service provision, and greater oversight and governance.

"The next phase of the review will see a further feasibility and detailed impact assessment completed to determine the timeline for deployment of the revised Divisional structures.

"There will be no impact on our service to the public in the relevant Divisions during the transition to the revised Divisional Model."
