This morning.
Garda Commissioner Drew Harris held his first press conference at Garda HQ in Phoenix Park where he outlined his vision for the gardai.
During the press conference, Mr Harris told RTÉ’s Crime Correspondent Paul Reynolds that he wouldn’t be afraid to speak truth to power.
This will end well.
Meanwhile…
Harris stands over his evidence of Garda collusion in murder of two RUC officers to Smithwick tribunal. But he says he does recognize that vast majority of gardai work with integrity in the border area. pic.twitter.com/MVecuPcQwQ

Drew is his middle name. Apparently his full name is Jeremy-Anne Drew Harris.
He has power. Given what has happened in the recent past he needs to be open to listening to the truth.
I wonder will be investigate the claim by award-winning journalist Gemma O’Doherty that the State killed Veronica Guerin?
Right after he investigates her claims about Vaccinations I suppose
How much of his effort will be focused on republic and how much on retrospective matters of IRA and the North? Don’t they have their own chief of police? We need his undivided attention on our local matters first. IMO, naturally.
He is the “power” now and what he needs to do is take action to purge the corrupt organization which he now runs.
