“In the context of ongoing legal proceedings in a particular case, the Government has learned that a system was in place in a large number of Garda stations whereby incoming and outgoing telephone calls were taped and recorded. The Government was informed of this new information at its meeting today.”

What is it with boards and the pro AGS agenda? Obviously when they're not on Pulse looking up Georgia Salpa's address or cancelling the penalty points of the hoi polloi then they spend the day on boards. Probably have plenty of free time what with the secret recording of phone calls leading to "amazing" breaks in cases that Sherlock Holmes himself would be incapable of.

Gardai spot a car taking the illegal turn and stop it. they speak to the driver, who smells of drink. by her own admission had drink taken ( a hot whiskey for her cold!!) the roadside breath test equipment fails to work. so she is arrested on suspicion of drink driving, brought to the station, placed in a cell until a doctor arrives, gives a sample, sample is tested, its under the limit. good girl deputy daly. she should be happy the Gardai are doing their job, i know plenty of Guards who wouldnt have a clue who she was if they stopped her, myself included, although i get the impression she wouldnt be long telling ya! also, she was placed in a cell while waiting for a doctor? so is every other prisoner, is Clare Daly saying she should be treated differently because she is a TD? is she somehow above the law? is she better than others that have been arrested for suspected drunk driving?

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. The Government spokesman said tonight that Mr Shatter only found out for the first time yesterday about the recording and retention of telephone conversations in garda stations. despite the fact that a letter informing him about them was sent to the Department of Justice more than two weeks ago.http://www.rte.ie/news/2014/0325/604505-garda-recordings/

Spring Onion wrote: » Statement from Clare Daly TD I was brought in a patrol car to the Kilmainham Garda Station – within 300 metres distance. At one point I was placed in a cell on my own. A doctor was called and I provided a urine sample. When I was released a female Garda told me to ‘come back when you are sober’. I believe that the Gardai implementing road safety have a job to do and I support them. However, I object strongly to the arrest, handcuffing and release of information re the arrest on suspicion of drink driving to the tabloid press early on Tuesday. My legal advice is that none of this is ‘procedure’.I have received the official result of the test on the urine sample provided and the result is 45 milligrammes per 100 millilitres of urine, which is 33% below the allowable limit – 67 milligrammes

Was she stuttering or unable to stand up that they assumed she was drunk? The handcuffing was completely OTT. Jackasses. Anyone that agrees with this should go and live in a police state. It is not how I want my country run.
