(1) It is incumbent upon the Regional Police Commander of each Police Region to prioritise the best use of police resources to provide optimum police response. Flexibility is a must in terms of resourcing and the Police Service is committed to providing resources at levels that are appropriate and commensurate with policing demands in the respective policing Districts throughout the State. Naturally the Regional Police Commanders continually monitor policing demands and adjust resourcing requirements accordingly.
