Commissioner Drew Harris met with the four Garda representative associations this evening on the issues of assaults on Gardaí and recruitment.
GARDA COMMISSIONER DREW Harris outlined the need for additional and enhanced safety equipment during a meeting with the four garda representative associations this evening.
The statement added that this has “enabled more than 800 Gardaí to be released from administrative roles to operational duties”. However, he acknowledged that “already this year we have seen a number of serious assaults on Gardaí”. “I will continue to ensure we provide Gardaí with the equipment they need to do their jobs safely and effectively.”
