Gardaí Call for Training Allowance to be Doubled to €35,000 a year – 15/07/2025
The Garda Representative Association has called for the training allowance to be doubled. The Department of Justice had hoped to recruit 1,000 new members into An Garda Síochána. However, Minister for Justice Jim O’Callaghan told the Dáil last week he expects it will be only 600 to 650. Garda Representative Association Assistant General Secretary Tara McManus says there are a “number of things” the Government could do to help address the problem, and Tara spoke to us this morning on The Agenda about this.
