Excl: Garda Commissioner has earmarked a €23 million reduction in Dublin policing

Image: Leah Farrell via RollingNews.ie Image: Leah Farrell via RollingNews.ie GARDA COMMISSIONER DREW Harris has earmarked a €23 million reduction in spending for the Dublin region as he told his chiefs across the country to keep their budgets in check for the year, TheJournal.ie has learned

A number of officers from the region have also been placed on duty in other areas, such as Drogheda, as well as other regions where criminality is increasing. As a result, and to continue to operate its service effectively in the capital, there is an overspend on overtime and other cost-inducing factors.

“The DMR is always over budget. It’s to do with the amount of crime in the area. The Commissioner was saying this, not as a reprimand to the DMR, but to everyone, that coming in on budget was important.

Lads €1.882 billion? Is this money being spent on policing or immigration?

Well the Dublin Metropolitan Police (DMP)/An Polini Cathrach Ath Cliath were subsumed into An Garda Siochana na h'Eireann (AGSE)/Guardians of the Peace of Ireland.

FG Law and order party! 😂

Is he backward or something..it should be €23 million increase.

The money will be funnelled into a housing development in D4 for a load of lads from Somalia and the Congo.

Why is it the establishment media both in Ireland and the UK refuse to show what is going on in France Shame on you

finegael - tough on crime. . . apparently. GE2020

Hey kids. Are you being raised by a single mother? Do you believe the rules don't apply to you? Have you no formal education and a penchant for violence? Well come on down to Crazy Drew’s. With his craaazy new scheme there’s never been a better time to start your career in crime.

Is the idea to collapse the service so much this ruc can completely take over lol oh sorry psni

Well the criminals will be delighted.

How do FineGael election promises and this story add up?

Is Harris being bribed by the gangs!?!

Dismal! Yet the govt will be happy because these cuts will increase its budget surplus!!! This is equivalent to a medieval doctor bloodletting to cure a patient!!!

Plenty of resources when the Pope or royal family or trump arrive over

I expect he knows more about what's going on than the obsessive compulsive twitterati on this and other threads. Myself included!

Harris has completely lost his shit out of touch with society

Cut out virtue signalling and pride parades

'Blueshirts' pointing out the Party established by actual Right-Wing, Nazi styled, 'Blueshirts'.. gets a wee mention, on the day ALL party leaders march in 'solidarity'.. in Drogheda.. in the middle of a GE Campaign. Great Journalism, me arse.

Sabotage......🙄 Drew Harris needs to leave.

Boots on the ground are saying they need more resources

Only 192 garda stations have received an increase in staffing levels since 2015Only a third of the country’s network of over 560 Garda stations has experienced an increase in staffing levels in the past five years, despite almost 2,800 extra gardaí joining the force over the period. Is there work for them all? Supernumerary police forces can be deleterious to civil liberties/democracy. Particularly if discernably recruited during the lifetimes of particular Govts possibly more concerned with jobs for the boys/girls than law/order per se? But the Gordai have to be stationed in the roight places donchaknow. 'The growing strength of the force.' You guys are gas.

No change in staffing levels in 240 garda stations despite addition of almost 2,800 new recruitsOnly a third of the country’s network of over 560 Garda stations has experienced an increase in staffing levels in the past five years, despite almost 2,800 extra gardaí joining the force over the period. Increases in establishment should accompany reductions in working week with financial incentives to destress existing members and civilianise/democratise police force of southern state as currently constituted. And allow secondary employment to compensate.
