Only so much can be done to tackle terror

In relation to Ireland, the threat level from international terrorism is constantly under review and that remains the case after the Manchester bombing, writes Cormac O’Keeffe.

SECURITY at public events and busy locations is, again, a key issue that will be examined by Garda security chiefs after the Manchester bombing.

There are now suggestions that checks should be conducted on the bodies, and not just the bags, of people attending events such as concerts or matches.
