Report on Membership of the Joint Policing Committees

Hereunder is the current membership of the Dublin Citywide and Area Joint Policing Committees for the period 2019-2024.

The Garda Síochána Act 2005 made provision for the establishment of Joint Policing Committees in all Local Authority Areas. In Dublin City, this consisted of a Citywide Joint Policing Committee and 5 Area Sub Committees.

Guidelines for the operation of the Joint Policing Committees were introduced by the Department of Justice in 2008, to cover the period 2009 – 2014, the life of the previous City Council.

New guidelines were introduced to cover the period 2014 – 2019, and a report (no. 288/2014) on these guidelines was presented to the City Council, approving the establishment of the Dublin City Joint Policing Committee and five Area Joint Policing Sub Committees. Responsibility for issuing guidelines going forward rests with the Policing Authority, which was established by the Minister for Justice and Equality in January 2016.

Accordingly, the membership of the Dublin City Joint Policing Committee and the 5 Joint Policing Subcommittees for the period 2019-2024 is set out hereunder:
