New Summer uniforms for gardai launched last week
This morning.
They’re recruiting.
Via RTÉ News:
Budget 2022 provided for the recruitment of up to 1,200 gardaí and support staff this year and many of those recruited will be drawn from this competition.
The recruitment competition is the first held since new regulations were introduced, which includes ending the requirement for applicants to be proficient in two languages, one of which must be English or Irish.
Minister for Justice Helen McEntee has urged members of new Irish communities, women and people from minority groups to apply.
She said the Government and the Garda Commissioner are committed to increasing diversity and ensuring that all communities can see themselves reflected in the police service.

Gulp.
This morning.
Via RTE News:
…gardaí will in future wear polo shirts, two-tone soft shell and waterproof jackets and operational trousers.
The uniform will also be clearly badged with the Garda crest for the first time.
Gardaí will no longer wear shirts and ties, except on formal occasions, but will continue to wear the distinctive Garda peaked cap.
Stylish and powerful?
Or reminiscent of low-budget 1980s TV sci-fi?
Only you can decide.
