‘Big crime issues’ within six divisions

SIX Garda divisions have both the lowest satisfaction with gardaí and the greatest fears in relation to crime.

A new survey found that, of 25 Garda divisions, Waterford/Kilkenny, Limerick, Dublin Metropolitan Region West, Carlow/Kildare, Cork City and Cork North have the biggest issues in relation to crime.

However, the survey of 10,000 people shows these divisions, apart from Dublin West, did not have the highest rates for recorded crime.
