Councillor Claims Only "Six Regular Gardaí" Were Policing Across County Clare On May Weekend

It's claimed as little as six regular Gardaí were policing the entire county of Clare on one day during the last weekend in May. It comes as elected representatives have once again raised concerns over stretched garda resources locally. The latest meeting of Clare County Council heard that on the day in question, just one Garda Car was policing the Western seaboard from Kilrush to Kinvara. Ennistymon Fianna Fáil Councillor Shane Talty expressed his concern.
