Tipperary Garda Division’s outgoing Chief Supt Derek Smart said the advisory committee was very much impressed with the applications for these CCTV schemes and was going to recommend that the Garda Commissioner sign off on them.

He said it was good to get the schemes over the line and the same process will follow with other community CCTV schemes being planned in the county.
