Clancy makes history with garda post
Catherine Clancy, a Garda sergeant's daughter from Donegal, was one of two assistant commissioners named by Justice Minister Michael McDowell following Cabinet approval.
The 49-year-old, tipped to be the first female commissioner, is currently chief superintendent in the Donegal division. She moved there in the wake of the controversy that led to the setting up of the Morris Tribunal which is probing to activities of some gardaí in the north-west.
