Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation
Shoplifting: Discussion
Mr. Noel Dunne:
We have often gone to court after six months and we have to review the CCTV footage to remember which incident it was because there are so many. We are then sitting in court all day. As I said earlier, if gardaí see that action is being taken, they will be more motivated to get these people into court. It is very demoralising for six gardaí to sit there all morning and for the person to be told "Off you pop."
