Nearly 100 Gardai graduate from Templemore today

A passing out parade for the newest members of An Garda Siochana will take place in Co. Tipperary today.
99 student gardai will graduate at the Templemore Training College later this morning.

Among the attendees will be the Garda Commissioner Noirin O'Sullivan and the Justice Minister Frances Fitzgerald.

Last April 99 new gardai attended their formal passing out parade at the Garda training college in Templemore.

They were the first cohort to graduate from the re-vamped course, since recruitment stopped in 2009.

The revised training programme focuses on individual responses to scenarios rather than rote learning.
