Justice Minister at Cork Chamber

The need for increased policing resources in the city was raised with the Justice Minister in a meeting she attended at Cork Chamber recently. The focus of the meeting, which was also attended by senior politicians including Minister Simon Coveney TD and Chief Superintendent Tom Myers, was to highlight some of the concerns associated with the need for a greater garda presence in the city.

“The meeting with Minister Helen McEntee was very productive and a wide range of issues connected to policing resources were discussed,” said Conor Healy, Cork Chamber CEO.

“The need for increased policing resources in the city has been on our agenda and we will continue to advocate on behalf of our members to ensure that Cork remains a safe city that is an attractive place to work, live and visit.

“The Minister’s engagement was very important, and we are hopeful that the necessary supports needed will be put in place to address some of the difficulties being experienced in the city and also to complement the growing population”.
