Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Community Policing and Rural Crime: Discussion (Resumed)

9:00 am

Mr. Michael Finn:

I share what has been said. That type of relationship is being developed organically on the ground between gardaí, the HSE and those who deal with homeless communities. While we have worked together in the past, we just did not have the formal structure in place. The joint policing committees deal with us and the local authorities. I believe the relationship has developed organically, but there is a need to take it to the next level. It is working from Belfast to Dublin and Cork down to the south east.
