Inquiry into penalty points finds no deception

A Garda inquiry into the cancellation of penalty points has found there was no corruption or deception in the termination of fines by gardaí but said the system needs to be overhauled.

Three senior members of the force face disciplinary procedures after the inquiry found they may not have followed guidelines on cancelling points.

Opposition party TDs yesterday suggested the inquiry was a whitewash as it was conducted internally by the force.
