Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality
Garda Reform and Related Issues: Discussion
Mr. Drew Harris:
Our budget is under pressure. There is a slight overspend and we must apply pretty rigorous supervision and control of it so we stay within budget. It requires of me and the rest of the senior team new approaches to some of our deployments and a revisiting of the way we manage some events. That is ongoing. We must constantly look at how we use our resources because our resources are too precious to just keep on doing things the way we have always done them. We must think of new ways of working so we can apply ourselves to pressing policing issues.
