RAF Regiment & Northern Ireland

I know that 3 squadron are based in Ireland all the time. But do the Regiment supply other squadrons to do the general internal security stuff like the Army & Royal Marines?

Sometimes 3 sqn need cover if they are training abroad or field firing. Usually one of the other sqn's does the NIAT training package and then takes over.
