Public Accounts Committee

2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána

9:30 am

Mr. Drew Harris:

I want to do more in providing specific supports for individuals in very demanding roles. If you are viewing abusive material online, you need specific supports. We want to put those in place. Those involved in firearms incidents in the past year need specific support as well. We have had members shot at and shot and members who discharged firearms. These are areas in which work is under way and is being developed. They relate to gaps I have seen. As we deal with one issue, we see another, and then we see the next. I am content with the work we have done but there is always more to be done in this area.
