No. We want to strengthen and support An Garda Síochána, which I always seek to do, but not when gardaí accompany masked men in a car belonging to an agent of the sheriff, with the number plates blocked out and no tax or NCT certificate displayed on the windscreen. It was a car similar to that used in the gangland crimes committed in Dublin. That was disgusting and scandalous, and it should be investigated by the Minister for Justice and Equality. Putting gardaí in that position when trying to evict a person from a family home is not appropriate.
