Commissioner to address Garda Sergeants' conference

Garda Commissioner Fachtna Murphy will today address the annual conference of the Association of Garda Sergeants and Inspectors.

It is the second day of the three-day event in Co Meath and will see delegates debate dozens of motions ranging from pay and pensions to training and hours of duty.

The author of a report looking at the regeneration of some of Limerick’s most troubled neighbourhoods, John Fitzgerald, will also give an address followed by a question and answer session.

The conference closes tomorrow afternoon with an address by the Association’s President Paschal Feeney.
