119. Deputy Imelda Munster asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality the budget for each of the three Garda districts in County Louth for each of the years since 2011. [35643/16]

Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality (Deputy Frances Fitzgerald): The Deputy will appreciate that the Garda Commissioner, as accounting officer for An Garda Síochána, has responsibility for the allocation of Garda finances and resources, and I, as Minister, have no direct role in these matters.
I am advised by the Garda authorities that the total expenditure in each of the three districts, over the period requested by the Deputy, is set out in the table below.
