The Chair of Clare’s Joint Policing Committee says this county is already seen an increase in Garda numbers promised in Budget 2022.

800 more Gardai are to be made available nationwide this year, with Commissioner Drew Harris saying during a visit to Clare in October that this county would get ‘its share’ of that number.

Progress on the merger of Clare and Tipperary’s Garda Divisions is also due to be made in the first half of this year.
