Mark Ward (Dublin Mid West, Sinn Fein)

I am a member of the South Dublin County Council joint policing committee and I can honestly say we have not sat since April 2024, more than a year ago now. To me, there is a vacuum there in this regard. Members of Mr. Bolger's organisation who I meet in regular engagements, at the late-night soccer leagues mentioned that were mentioned and so on, have told me they are also noticing there is a vacuum with the joint policing committees being stood down and these local community safety partnerships not yet having been set up.
