Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Irish Coast Guard: Discussion

Mr. Michael Murray:

They have changed so we can represent the volunteers more. Previously, it was an advisory capacity. We would help and represent and advise them that way. Now, we have power in that we can get them an independent HR consultant to talk to them and go through the situation or case with them, as needs be and if they want it. That is a huge plus in itself. We have been supplied with a secretariat so we can liaise with volunteers and get them to work with us in contacting the volunteers on the ground and letting them know what we are doing and what we can do for them.
