Summary
In the wake of a deadly August crash on the M9 that killed five teens and injured several others, the Justice Committee is holding a high-stakes meeting with Garda leadership to address critical gaps in pursuit training and officer safety. Despite claims that nearly 200 officers are trained for dynamic vehicle stops, the Garda Representative Association exposed a glaring oversight: no officer received specific pursuit training before the tragedy. With families grieving and public trust at risk, the committee demands accountability — pushing for better resources, legal clarity, and comprehensive training to ensure Gardaí can handle dangerous situations without endangering lives.
