PSA and Garda Reserve

RUNNER 1

Would just like to know if anyone knows when do you have to give up the PSA license if your doing security is it at the start or end of training .Iv herd its not till you graduate and after that if you have stuck with it you must give it up?

snams

Start of training. But some never do.

Grand stretch in the evenings. Still a bit cold though.

RUNNER 1

some good advice from people who PM me thanks lads. Would still like to here what others did asking to keep it etc??

Alan94

People are told they should not have them, I believe these rules should be followed. I wanted a psa licence but did not get one because reserves are not allowed have one.

Yes but why would I get one if I had to give it up when or if I get In. I'm unsure why anybody would think they can keep it if it states in the requirments for the reserves that a person can not have one.
I'm not sure what suggestions you got but all I could think of is maybe you ring and ask but im sure if they found out you had one and used it while a serving reserve they wouldn't be to happy.
I am not trying to miss lead or argue or even troll as has been suggested in previous threads, I am simply putting my points and opinions across as I am perfectly entitled to do.

Thanks I will do that

I believe that guy was banned. I think if you say something against anyone or challenge an opinion you get banned, I think it's ridiculous.
