Concern over transfer of Gardai from Loughrea
Minister of State at the Department of Education and Galway East T.D, Ciaran Cannon is being urged to prevent Gardaí being moved from Loughrea to Oranmore.
It’s understood up to 7 members of the traffic corps in Loughrea will be redeployed to the base in Oranmore next month.
Oranmore is currently the headquarters for Galway city traffic corps.
There is concern locally that the reduction in Gardaí will result in increased rural crime in the Loughrea area.
Mayor of Loughrea, James Regan says it cannot be allowed to happen.
