Gerald Nash: ...of the fixed-charge penalty notice system, highlighted by the Comptroller and Auditor General in his examination of the issues, and further confirmed, if I may say that, by the report from the Garda Síochána Inspectorate yesterday.

Reports of Unlawful Surveillance of the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission: Statements (11 Feb 2014)

Gerald Nash: ..., which has helped to clarify some matters. However, some questions remain to be answered. I am sure we all agree that even the faintest possibility of an attempt having been made to spy on the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission is an extraordinary matter. It is not, therefore, surprising that this matter has generated so much public concern. I am mindful of how sensitive...

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: An Garda Síochána (22 Jun 2021)

Gerald Nash: It is scandalous the electoral district with the second-largest population in County Meath does not have a full-time Garda station. That is indefensible.

Public Accounts Committee: Garda Síochána - Review of Allowances (1 Nov 2012)

Gerald Nash: I imagine that many gardaí consider it to be part of core pay given that it has been in place for nearly 90 years. I was not aware of the non-public duty allowance until we undertook this exercise. I understand it is paid to gardaí who perform duties at concerts, football matches and so on. I will refer the Commissioner to a line in the business case returned to the Department...

Seanad: Order of Business (28 Mar 2018)

Gerald Nash: Members will be aware that the Association of Garda Sergeants and Inspectors, AGSI, is having its annual conference. Serious concerns have been expressed by that body about the Government's foot dragging over responding to a landmark Council of Europe decision a couple of years ago relating to trade union rights for the AGSI, a right that should and could be very easily applied not just to...

Public Accounts Committee: Garda Síochána - Review of Allowances (1 Nov 2012)

Gerald Nash: Given that the public service has evolved and the Garda has responded to the change in a positive way, there is a strong argument for this allowance to be absorbed into core pay.
