Financial Statements 2024: Houses of the Oireachtas Commission

2:00 am

Mr. Peter Finnegan:

An Garda Síochána. We have a close working relationship with the Garda. We have a security group that meets with the Garda and in advance of say, the return of the Dáil, there will be meetings taking place. The Garda will have its intelligence and will take decisions on what happens in the precincts of Leinster House. They also pay for that. They are policing decisions based on intelligence.
