Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Irish Coast Guard: Discussion

Mr. Vincent Farr:

CUAG represents all the members as volunteers, roughly 1,000. Because of the culture of fear, we had to stop our membership at over 100. We were and still are getting calls. We are portrayed as the fourth blue light emergency service but management wanted to take that blue light away from us so we could not help the members of the public we serve. That is where the frustrations are arising.
