200 New Recruits for the Training College in Templemore

Posted by Alan Kelly on October 20, 2014 at 03:36 PM

I welcome the announcement in the budget of an additional 200 Garda recruits for the training college in Templemore.

This is great news for the town of Templemore, particularly businesses in the area with the extra revenue in the town as well as the potential for tourism. 100 recruits will start in December and 100 more will start in January.

I also welcome the investment of €10 million for the Garda Fleet.  The  increased  investment  in  An  Garda  Síochána  marks a positive step forward  for policing in Ireland. New vehicles and ongoing recruitment will help  ensure a strong, visible policing presence is provided in communities right across the country, helping to reduce crime
