What the debate was about

Auto-generated

I welcome the investment the Minister announced for Dublin recently, namely, an additional allocation of €10 million for An Garda Síochána in Dublin, and the recent increases in penalties for attacks and assaults on a member of An Garda Síochána or the emergency services. This was an orchestrated campaign by the people involved, the unsavoury individuals who congregated for the sole purpose of creating havoc and mayhem and attacking members of An Garda Síochána, businesses, property and decent, ordinary people going about their day and their business in Dublin city.

At the same time, people join An Garda Síochána with the correct motive, namely, to protect the peace and ordinary, decent people in our country.
