Public Accounts Committee

2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána
Chapter 7 - Management of Overtime Expenditure in An Garda Síochána

9:00 am

Mr. Drew Harris:

We need to consider how we can extend ourselves by employing interns for a year as part of further education-type courses. There are many things that can be done. All of this is being done with the aim of opening up the organisation to the knowledge of more and more people. When those who know nothing about An Garda Síochána look into the force, it can seem a very mysterious place. This makes people unsure. We need to be mindful that we are competing to employ talent. We need to do all we can to promote ourselves.
