View answerI have been informed by the Garda Commissioner that An Garda Síochána issued a Roads Policing Manual in 2013. The roles and responsibilities of Garda members involved in pursuit incidents are clearly set out in the manual as are the policies and procedures to be followed where an individual appears to be intent on harming themselves, with the safety of all those involved in such situations, including the general public, being paramount. As this is an internal Garda document, there are no plans for it to be published.
