Regina Doherty (Meath East, Fine Gael)

Perhaps there is a reason for that.

An Garda Síochána is taking a number of steps to improve the quality of the policing service it provides, including outsourcing the operation of safety cameras, the introduction of new ICT and implementation of new working rosters, all of which have been very successful in local stations. This is another example of how successful the Croke Park agreement has been in some sectors of public life. The public rely on the delivery of quality public services. I am proud of our public services for what they are doing to rebuild the State after it was almost destroyed by the previous Government.
