Major security plan for FG conference

Fearing angry clashes at the FG annual conference in Limerick next weekend, gardaí have drawn up a major security plan and the South Court Hotel venue in Raheen will be a no-go area for non-delegates.

Many protest groups, including the pro-life Youth Defence, are expected to hold rallies outside the conference.

Gardaí will vet everybody entering the hotel area, to prevent infiltration during prime time TV coverage.
