Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    These units are formed on foot of the "Kathleen O' Toole report". Their primary function is to be a first response to a barricaded incident pending the arrival of ERU.

    As the Limerick RSU's are the "Pilot Project" it will be down to the people in the units and managing them to report problems and suggest remedies.
    When the review of this project is taking place it is vital that all involved give an open and honest assesment before it's rolled out nationwide.

    It sounds like it'll be the same as the UK's early ARVs (like metman said), who initially stored all their weapons (MP7's) and firearm jackets in the boot of the car in a safe and have to seek permission to arm i.e. get a pin code off a cigre. The RSU Volvo pictured a few pages back - Can be remotely turned off! If the Super is unhappy with a chase, or if it was stolen etc... There is a lot of control measures for this unit! Which of course has its pros and cons, which hopefully will be ironed out in a year or two.
