James Bannon (Longford-Westmeath, Fine Gael)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to debate the following urgent matter: the Government-caused threat of Garda strike action, which will leave people throughout the country at the mercy of gang crime and will cause an escalation of criminal activity, which already sees elderly and vulnerable people viciously attacked and robbed in their homes, as happened in County Longford last week.
