An Garda Síochána has just 24 hours to confirm tax compliance to PAC

An Garda Siochána has just 24 hours to confirm it is tax compliant to the Dáil’s Public Accounts Committee amid an ongoing Revenue examination of its accounts in response to the Garda College financial scandal.

Members of the PAC confirmed the looming deadline at the launch of the periodic report into the PAC’s work, saying the issue must be resolved once and for all.

During a months-long investigation last year, the college in Templemore was repeatedly put under the spotlight due to serious financial issues, whistleblower accusations, and claims the issue was being covered up.
