The Garda Representative Association has called for gardaí to be vaccinated if they are going to police the new quarantine proposals.

GRA assistant general secretary Dermot O’Brien said gardaí also want a clear plan for policing the border as it is an “unrealistic expectation” to police the 300 plus border crossings.
