Mr. John Twomey:

They get very specific training. A training programme has been designed by the Garda college to ensure they have all the skills required to attain the functions with which they have been tasked. They also have access through the national unit which equally has further training in that area. They get a very bespoke, specific training programme because they are dealing with the most vulnerable in our society.
