My answer (only because i dislike / disapprove of private clampers....

If the man (not because he is a garda) (or any other man / women of any profession) payed their money and now owns a property within this complex, they should be entitled to park THEIR OWN vehicle outside without a company tryin to make money annoying him / her.... and clamping his/ her car...

All the occupants should object to this fee... no matter what profession the person is i salute for standing up to this ****

The garda mentioned in the original post is a freeloader.

Said garda owes approx €8k in fees ie has never paid or made any effort to pay since he bought the apartment. He has been taken to court and has a judgement against him.

Thanks for the article, its been a while since I went looking into the mess that is rental housing.

In regards comments like this, you dont name the guy but anyone that lives with you will know who your talking about so Im going to ask, can you show evidence of this from a court? There should be a case on the website, even just naming the management company would allow us to check the statement.

without knowing the wexact circumastances i wont comment, but technically gardai are never really off duty.

if a crime is witnessed off duty then the member is expected to deal with it. so from that point of view an off duty member is not the same as anyone else.

so what if he was off duty gardai are citizens of the state too and as such must adhere to the law. if his private car is clamped tough diddy. pay the release like everyone else. if a crime is committed what is the garda going to do hop into his car and take chase i don't think so. gardai do not use their own cars for official business thats crap. if i were the op i'd make a complaint to the super of the gardas district and the ombudsman too.

Gardai do use their own vehicles in the course of their duty... Thats why there is a milage allowance if they do.

The same as all civil servants.

If you have a problem with this contact the relevant Minister.

OP I think your question has been answered.

Gardai do use their vehicles in the course of their duty. See also the Garda parking thread.

You are entitled to make a complaint to the Garda Ombudsman, Garda Commissioner and Minister for Justice though if you feel strongly about any incident involving an off duty or on duty Garda.

Thanks.
