PRESS RELEASE

Proposed Garda Inspectorate must not be subject to political influence of the day - says the Green Party

The Green Party has expressed concern about the Minister for Justice’s proposal to set up a Garda Inspectorate that would report directly to the Minister.

Green Party Justice spokesperson Ciarán Cuffe TD, said today that, “It would be more appropriate to vest such powers with the proposed Ombudsman Commission. This could help ensure that it is not subject to the political influence of the Minister of the day.”
