	McCormack v Garda Siochana Complaints Board and Commissioner of An Garda Siochana
		The applicant claims that Garda McHale was the principal witness for the prosecution at his trial in that the principal evidence against him consisted of three written statements which Garda McHale alleged he had made to him and which he witnessed.
		There is a chief executive attached to the Board and when the complaint is made to a Garda station (as happened here) the member in charge is required to notify the chief executive and the Commissioner of the Garda Siochana of the complaint and send to each a copy of it.
		The complaint was that Garda McHale had obtained access to the applicant in prison by using a false name and that he attempted to persuade him to withdraw his appeal.

	The Irish Association - Archives - Noel Conroy
		An Garda Síochána is in the middle ground, between all factions and those who seek personal or collective advantage, a position we are required to maintain and one which is at the heart of any system of justice in a democracy such as we have.
		An Garda Siochana as an organisation and I as Commissioner, carry out all functions in a professional manner regardless of which party or government is in power and history has shown this to be the case.
		Members of An Garda Siochana serve as liaison officers in some European countries, and continuous co-operation with the institutions and member states of the European Union facilitates a cohesive approach to serious, organised and terrorist crime, the effectiveness of which is developing rapidly.

	An Garda Siochana - Community Policing - Putting People First, 5th Edition
		The first Garda Commissioner - Michael Staines enshrined the fundamental principle of "Policing with the consent of community" when he stated in response to the debate on arming the new Garda Síochana "The Garda Síochána will succeed not by force of arms but on their moral authority as servants of the people".
		Garda management is conscious of the importance of Community Policing and as such appoint members who are energetic, resourceful and have the capacity to understand and resolve difficulties as they arise, using a problem solving approach.
		A Garda working full-time in an area can greatly increase the satisfaction level among the public, reduce crime and vandalism giving a sense of well being to local residents, and addressing the fear of crime.

	Seanad Éireann - Volume 55 - 03 January, 1962 - Garda Síochána Bill, 1961—Second and Subsequent Stages.
		The duties of the Garda are such that, no matter how well trained members of the force may be and no matter how many extra inspectors the Minister may appoint or we may agree to have appointed, they are unlikely to be successful without public co-operation.
		It is of paramount importance to establish definitely that if a Garda does his duty, no matter who the culprit may be, instead of being sent, perhaps, to the West of Ireland or to some outlying station, as has so often happened in the past, he will be sustained and supported by all his superiors.
		In the first place, the Garda are to some extent hampered in their attempts to deal with it by the reluctance of people concerned to give information about this type of incident.

	Cork City Council > News & Current Events: Latest News: Lord Mayor's Reception for An Garda ...
		Garda Brian Shanahan, exactly one year later was left fighting for his life after he was struck by a car at the exact same spot.
		The Gardaí here in Cork are indeed very fortunate to be working in a City where the population, by in large, is very law-abiding, basically policing themselves and at the same time are willing to work and contribute towards maintaining and improving quality of life issues with stakeholders such as the Gardaí.
		As the Garda force we are becoming increasingly conscious of the importance of striving to meet customers changing needs, being more flexible in implementing change, identifying relevant stakeholders to achieve strategic goals and objectives in a coherent manner.

	Labour Youth - Policy - Garda Reform
		The respect that the Garda have traditionally enjoyed since the foundation of the state will continue to deteriorate if the force is not reformed and made more responsive to the changing demands of fighting crime and community policing in a modern Ireland.
		The establishment of a national Garda Development board is a necessary statuary body to oversee the strategic development of the Garda Siochana and in conjunction with the Commissioners office shall oversee the management of long and mid-term operational reforms.
		There should be Garda training programmes to improve the linguistic abilities of Gradai, so that there are people in stations located near to communities with the skills to be able to communicate with them in their own languages.

	Speech by Fiona O'Malley on Garda Siochana Bill
		The purpose of the Garda Siochána Ombudsman Commission is to ensure openness, transparency and accountability in the process by which complaints against the Gardaí are investigated.
		The Garda Siochana inspectorate will introduce the concept of benchmarking to the force, with standards, practice and performance benchmarked to comparable international policing experiences.
		The key objectives will be to ensure and promote efficiency and effectiveness in the Garda Siochana and to provide independent and objective advice to the Minister on the operation and the administration of the force.

	Case Study 1/00 An Garda Síochána - Data Protection Commissioner - Ireland (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		An Garda Síochána wrote back to him requesting him to specify which databases were to be checked, and requesting that he provide additional details including date of birth.
		He argued that the details relating to the District Court conviction should be deleted from his Garda record, since this conviction had been appealed and was therefore not a valid conviction.
		In light of this finding, I considered it appropriate for An Garda Síochána to record full and accurate particulars in relation to that conviction on its Criminal Records Database, provided that the outcome of the appeal hearing was also accurately recorded.
