Policing, Security and Community Safety Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2023-12-13
============================================================

Catherine Ardagh (FF), Industrial and Commercial Panel

Yes, between the gardaí and the local people living in the area and there is great feedback. There are great channels of communication between the local community and An Garda Síochána. It is important we get information, not only about the bad stuff we read about. A lot of good stuff is going on as well and An Garda Síochána has an important role to play.
I thank the Minister for acknowledging the main organiser of that event, who is a retired garda, John O'Sullivan. It is a difficult job.
