Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (21 Mar 2024)

Imelda Munster: I thank the Commissioner. I refer to the PULSE system and the 2,000 emergency calls that were cancelled or deleted at the time. The review carried out in 2021 stated that gardaí behaviour was a major factor in that. The Garda got funding, I think in 2021, of €15 million for a new IT system. Is that IT system up and running?

Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission (7 Apr 2022)

Imelda Munster: I will finish up by saying that the Minister had described the new proposals as the most wide-ranging and coherent reform of policing in a generation.

Imelda Munster: I am coming to it. In one case, a family was informed its home was going to be attacked on a particular night. The gardaí were made aware of the threat. The home was attacked and there was not a garda to be seen. I welcome the five arrests made at the weekend but the main instigators and organisers have still not been apprehended and the dogs in the street know who they are.
