The Policing Authority has raised with the Garda Commissioner the prospect of the force acknowledging Garda failures during next year’s events marking the centenary of An Garda Síochána.
In making the suggestion, the authority referenced the recent exhumation of "Baby John" in the Kerry babies case and the Garda apologies to Joanne Hayes about the Garda’s handling of the investigation.
