Pay and promotion top agenda at Garda conference
Pay and promotion are topping the agenda on the second day of the annual conference of Ireland’s Garda sergeants and inspectors.
Rank and file members say the real concern is the falling number of gardai seeking promotion because of the lack of reward.
George Maybury of the Association of Garda Sergeants and Inspectors, said: "There are less and less members putting themselves forward for promotion because they don’t see that there’s adequate reward for taking on additional responsibilities."
