A number of appointments and allocations have been confirmed in Donegal in line with the new operating model for An Garda Siochana in the county.
The restructuring is being introduced as part of the Policing Service for the Future plan, recommended by both the Commission of the Future of Policing in Ireland and the Garda Inspectorate.
Detective Superintendent Shaun Grant (main pic), based in the Buncrana Garda Station, has responsibility for the Donegal Crime Functional Area. Specialist units will be attached to this area and will support Community Engagement.
Superintendent David Kelly in Milford Garda Station has responsibility for Donegal Performance Assurance Functional Area. He will now be responsible for things such as Governance and Courts within the Division.
The specialist knowledge brought by this Functional Area will allow the Community Engagement and Crime Superintendents and Inspectors to focus on the delivery of an operational service to the public.
Superintendent Karen Duffy in Ballyshannon Garda Station has responsibility for Donegal South Community Engagement Functional Area, covering front-line core policing.
Chief Superintendent Goretti Sheridan, who was appointed in 2024, remains in the role for county Donegal.
