It's hard not to be cynical at this stage, you can bet the words "Shatter" "AGS", "Justice system" and "Reform" will be used together a lot in the coming days.

the rot in our police force long preceeds the current minister for justice , I think shatter should go but the major issue here is not him , its the culture within AGS

if shatter were not such an unlikeable personality , I suspect most would realise this

This taping of phone calls was used to convict garda in Waterford over an assault. Who authorised that and was it used to spy on the garda officers or persons arrested?

AGS and the Commissioner answer to the Dept. of Justice so the buck stops with whoever the Minister of Justice is.
The AG has been aware of recordings for six months and you can bet Shatter was aware of them also, now he wants to be seen as the saviour of the integrity of AGS with reform, I hope the allegations turn out to be exaggerated by the Govt. because it's the last thing the country needs but until more is known who knows what's involved.
This has been held as some sort of get out of jail card for Shatter all along.
His statement Thursday will probably largely deal with the new commission of inquiry being set up.

Puzzles me why this is news to the government - GSOC identified this practice in Waterford City last year in its report on the assault on Anthony Holness while in garda custody:

GSOC also said the station’s practice of recording all incoming and outgoing calls on a public telephone line was in breach of statues governing such procedures.

“On consideration of the ruling of the court the Garda Commissioner may wish to re-evaluate his practice regarding the recording of such calls and the consents required if it is to be permissible to use such recordings in evidence,” it said.

It also puzzles me why it would be news to Billy Hawkes as he said today.

tayto lover · 25-03-2014 7:43pm

Again my point regarding the Smithwicks Tribunal stands.

Was the fact that several/many garda stations had their phones tapped made known to Smithwicks in light of the AG and Govt knowing about this?
No mention of that in the Tribunal which only ended recently at all.

Who authorised the practice and for what reason?
The garda workers in these stations didn't seem to know that their phnoes were tapped either according to the News.

Unless something of substance emerges looking like Kenny is standing by Shatter. Enda your justice minister INCORRECTLY stated that a whistleblower wouldn't appear before an inquiry. Such a statement reflects poorly on the whistleblower IF true. It was FALSE. Enda he was never asked. Shatter incorrectly and hence wrongly smeared the character of a whistleblower. He, Shatter allowed a Police Commissioner to remain in office after calling the actions of whistleblowers DISGUSTING.
You Enda criticized FF for there lack of morals. Your no better yourself. Shame on you. Fire Shatter and reclaim some of the moral ground or go into a cesspit with him. Damn you Enda your a disgrace Taoiseach or otherwise.

Callinan retires with his fat pension and pay off. Really pees me off this whole gravy train. Shatter, spineless, should have had the balls to fire him. Shatter too will get his fat pension when he buggers off. Hopefully sooner than later. Bob Geldof was right. Banana Republic.

The mind boggles as to the implications of the recordings. What else have they been doing at the Garda stations? Shatter was prepared to gloss over the whole whistleblower, penalty points debacles. He should go immediately.

The Govt have a high priority in making sure that they have the backing of the garda and army and that any dissenters are removed. That's why they are not allowed have a union too. The Govt appoint the Commissioner and he keeps the garda members in check.
This practice has to stop now.

I know he ultimately made the decision himself but Shatter had been slowly pulling away from him for weeks.

That is true. I heard a friend of his speak to Matt Cooper this evening and he
expressed a lot of anger towards Shatter for abandoning Callinan over recent weeks!

The man was deluded!! He painted Callinan as the victim and used the phrase
'Hindsight is always 100%' over and over again!!

From what i can remember it was used to obtain evidence from a recording of a conversation between a detainee and solicitor but all their public lines were recorded.

I met a few recently and they told me that the morale in the job is at a very low ebb. Having their shift conditions changed along with the pay cuts have made many of them think of packing it all in. Some of them don't see their kids for days because of the shift changes and struggle to pay bills.
In my opinion this along with the scandals would make a good worker reluctant to involve himself deeply in his work.
As the saying goes "if you pay peanuts, you get monkeys".
I am of the opinion that the pay and conditions in the garda is not attracting the caliber of officer it used to have.

I'm fairly sure most Guards have never been in the job, where they can be attacked and spat at on a quiet day, for the money. There is in fact a long waiting list for the windows when Garda recruitment opens. I think whilst no-one would reject more money for the same job, poor morale is a reflection of poor leadership - down to quite frankly appalling equipment and shortages of it, plus the corrosive effect of tolerated incompetence.

And while there was always good Gardai (I think especially of unarmed Gardai who went up against armed terrorist gangs throughout the 1980s - some paying with the lives) I wouldn't believe for a second that the calibre of officer was on average higher in the past. Quite the opposite.

Callinan for example joined in the 1970s and was very successful climbing to the top, and his description of whistleblowers as "disgusting" is wholly unsurprising to me. He is a product of his time in the Guards. Even "good" guards of that era fell in line when ordered. Cancelling penalty points? Similar activity where family and friends ask a Guard to "have a word" regarding a fine or ticket has been happening for decades - an open secret in Irish society and tolerated. And I'm personally aware of one case 20 years ago where Gardai conspired (there is no other word for it) to help one of their own escape from the consequences of writing off a car in a crash whilst drunk (I'm not going to provide further details so you can accept or disregard that - I'm aware its anecdotal). The calibre of Guards wasn't indisputably higher in the past.

As I said, I don't think Guards are in it for the money. They do a job far harder than what the majority of the people do day to day. I would still instinctively trust and respect the average Guard. The vast majority of them want to do a good job - the real issue is poor leadership setting a poor example, and abusing members sense of loyalty to each other to cover up for ineffective, incompetent and corrupt Guards. A stronger GSOC, and a better form of leadership not so resistant to criticism would lead to a far higher standard than was present in the past.

The Govt. brought this to the attention of the public today and before making their statement had agreed to set up a commission of inquiry.
Govt. ministers are queueing up on the news to tell us how serious these allegations are and how determined the Govt are to reform the AGS but this is in stark contrast to the Govt's. attitude to the GSOC bugging, WB's and penalty points.The whole thing looks stage managed including Callinans resignation. I don't doubt the seriousness of the allegations but I would argue that if the penalty points issue had been swept under the carpet we wouldn't have heard a lot about this.
They are blowing smoke up our asses as usual.

An Taoiseach told us today in the Dáil that the government, including Minister Shatter, only became aware of these allegations over the weekend.

An RTÉ source has said that the Garda Commissioner sent a letter to the Minister for Justice two weeks ago to highlight the issue, and the letter specifically told the General Secretary to bring the matter to the attention of Shatter.

RTÉ have the letter.

Callinan wrote to Department of Justice about recordings

RTÉ News has learned that former garda commissioner Martin Callinan wrote to the Department of Justice more than two weeks ago about the recording and retention of telephone conversations in garda stations.

In a letter to the Secretary General of the department, Mr Callinan asked that Minister for Justice Alan Shatter be informed of details of the recordings.

It has also emerged that the Attorney General was informed last November.

I wonder who leaked that letter? Looks like a parting shot from Callinan at Shatter to say thanks for sticking by him. I wonder what other documents will be leaked in the near future?

The Minister for Justice and the Garda Commissioner must live with in the laws of the land just like the rest of us.

The Morris tribunal highlighted all types of problems within the Gardai, with a serving Garda stating “You don’t hang your own”.

Justice Morris also suggested “Of the Gardaí serving in Donegal it cannot be said that they are unrepresentative or an aberration from the generality. All of them were trained as Gardaí and served under a uniform structure of administration and discipline that is standardised.”

Politicians ignored this and I wonder in 7 years will the same discussion begin again.

Katie Hannon on Prime Time has said that the official Govt line is that even though Callinan sent a letter to Shatter two weeks ago telling him about the phone recordings, it was only brought to Shatter's attention this morning - despite the fact that the letter stated that it was to be brought to the Minister's attention immediately! I'm not surprised that Shatter is playing dumb here, but he must really think that people are fcukin idiots if he thinks we'll believe that.

Roll's around laughing, Michael Noonan replying to Prime Time as to why the DOJ didn't tell Alan about the Comm's letter "maybe they didn't think it was important enough". Aargh, Mick uses my lines.. the minister was abroad (he was in Mexico)....

This is all typical political spin. The difference this time is that this was all put in place at the last minute and they are spinning on the fly, without the benefit of PR consultants and speech writers briefing them on all possible scenarios. The result is that they are tripping themselves up and coming out with bullsh1t, that the spindoctors would normally advise them against, because the public wouldn't buy it. This is a real eye-opener into how politicians spin and lie and I hope the public remembers it.

It suited AGSI and GRA to support Callinan (and even Shatter) recently. They had common enemies in GSOC and the whistleblowers. It's all blown wide open now though and who knows what will happen. I really can't see Shatter surviving this though. Ultimately the real winners will hopefully be the public, the ordinary rank and file members of AGS and GSOC.

just because they didnt come out publically and say anything doesnt mean they dont agree with the whistleblowers.

what you have to remember is GRA and AGSI are all Gardai, they HAVE to wait until they have ALL the evidence is produced before coming out on one side or the other.

they cant just stand up and back someone who alleges something without the evidence to back it up.
and by evidence, it means waiting for enquiries/independent reports to come in, so they have all the facts in front of them, then they can come out and say something.

it would be a LOT worse if representative associations were just picking sides without waiting to see all the evidence.
im sure after they get to read independent reports they will make a statement.

and you have no idea what supports they are giving to anyone behind the scenes.

You started a thread in AH casting aspersions on the whistleblowers! They have since been officially vindicated and the bulk of their assertions have been proven - but the public knew this all along. The Whistleblowers were ostracised and bullied by fellow members of AGS and received no support whatsoever from their representative bodies. You are now giving the same line as Redmond and rowing back and trying to say that you support the Whistleblowers!

The GRA, AGSI, you and a lot of members of AGS do not support the Whistleblowers, and this is a problem that has yet to be addressed.

no, im not saying i support them.
im not saying that at all, i dont know ALL the details.

i dont know that they did everything they could before they went to TDs, or if they just couldnt be bothered waiting for the Garda authorities to do something.
i am not aware whether they actually did things right or not.

all im saying is that the GRA and AGSI could not come out and support people without having all the full facts themselves.
and like i said, you have no idea what the GRA and AGSI were doing behind the scenes.

im not rowing back, not at all. but if they are shown to have fully followed proceedures and had no other option then to go to TDs then ill have no problem saying they were right.
and ill say fair play to them for doing what they did.
but ill wait for all the evidence thanks.

It was members of those organisations that decided to take her away in handcuffs over a suspected drink drive charge (when she was actually under the limit). You know that handcuffing a suspect for this charge is not normal protocol. It was also members who leaked the info to RTE.

On another note, I wonder how long it will be before the "missing" file on Shatter's breathalyser/asthma incident suddenly surface? This evening's warning shot from Callinan has probably made Shatter realise that the report is on its way, so I'd say he will resign before it is leaked.

Minister Shatter and Commissioner Callinan should both resign in disgrace
