Vol. 269 No. 1

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Garda Recruitment.

29.

asked the Minister for Justice when he proposes to advertise again for recruits for the Garda Síochána.

Candidates who applied for admission to the force in the context of the entrance examination held in October, 1972, are still being called up. Arrangements for further recruitment have not been settled yet but it is hoped that an entrance examination can be held in March, 1974. In this event advertising for recruits would commence at an early date. I should perhaps mention that it is open to a person who wishes to join the force to call at any time to any Garda Station and make application to join. Assuming he is otherwise suitable he will be informed at the appropriate time in regard to the next entrance examination.
