Episode Synopsis

More than 50 Gardaí in the Clare/Tipperary Garda Division will be eligible to retire next year.
Figures released by the Justice Minister to Shannon Sinn Féin TD Donna McGettigan shows 55 Gardaí of various ranks will reach retirement age next year, with this figure rising to 77 in 2027, 91 in 2028 and 108 in 2029.
A further nine members across the division are due to compulsorily retire over the next four years.
Deputy Donna McGettigan fears this will leave Clare "on the backfoot" unless recruitment efforts are ramped up.
