BREAKING: Towns receiving ten new Gardaí in County Tipperary revealed
The ten new members of the force will be a boost to local policing a Tipp Senator says
Ten new Gardaí are coming to Garda Stations across County Tipperary and the boost in manpower will help local policing elected representatives said today.
The deployment will see three new Gardaí stationed in the Nenagh District which also covers Roscrea, four new Gardaí in Clonmel, two deployed to Thurles and one deployed to Tipperary Town.
Meanwhile, a further 201 Garda recruits will begin training in Templemore this week, while another graduation is scheduled for November, ensuring more new members entering the force.
Fianna Fáil Senator for Tipperary South, Imelda Goldsboro welcomed the deployment of 10 newly attested Gardaí to Tipperary, strengthening visible policing across the county.
Senator Goldsboro commented: “The deployment of additional Gardaí is welcome. We are fortunate that every community wants to see more Gardaí visible in their area. It is one of the most effective measures we have for preventing crime and making people feel safer".
The new Gardaí are among 154 recruits who graduated from the Garda College in Templemore today. This intake represents the largest allocation of probationer Gardaí to regions outside Dublin in the past year and reflects the government’s ongoing investment in building stronger, safer communities.
Senator Goldsboro said the arrival of additional Garda members underlines Fianna Fáil’s commitment to increasing Garda presence on the ground.
She noted, “This latest allocation shows that investment in Garda recruitment is making a real difference on the ground. Local stations are being reinforced so they can continue to serve and protect communities effectively.
"Strengthening An Garda Síochána is a key priority for Fianna Fáil in Government, backed by a record €2.48 billion in funding in Budget 2025, a 27% increase since 2020", she said.
Goldsboro concluded “More Gardaí on the beat is one of the most effective ways to deter crime and enhance public safety. This latest deployment is a clear signal that government is delivering on its promise to support communities with the resources they need to feel secure.”
