Gardaí have been asked to fast-track procurement of body cameras for officers, while the force may seek help from law enforcement in other jurisdictions in trawling the sheer volume of CCTV footage from last week's riots. 

Addressing Dublin city’s Joint Policing Committee on Monday, Drew Harris said that An Garda Síochána may seek the help of law enforcement agencies abroad to “advance the investigation” as further arrests appear likely following the disorder last Thursday.
