Question 544: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if persons under 35 years who applied to join An Garda Síochána before the public sector recruitment moratorium will still be eligible to join once the recruitment moratorium has been lifted despite the fact that they may be over 35 years of age; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I am informed by the Garda authorities that following selection by the Public Appointments Service each applicant must undergo a Physical Competency Test, a Medical Examination and also Character Vetting. Applicants successful at all three stages will remain on a panel and are available to be offered positions as Garda Trainees in a future intake.
