Vol. 179 No. 2

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Compensation for Persons Injured in Assisting Gardaí.

35.

asked the Minister for Justice what provisions exist for payment of compensation by the State for persons injured in their person or property while assisting the Garda Síochána in the execution of their duty.

There are no specific statutory provisions for the making of payment of that type referred to.

Claims made are considered in my Department and payments, where approved are made from the Garda Síochána Vote on an ex-gratia basis.
