The Garda Representative Association has confirmed it's to press ahead with a 'No Confidence' ballot in the Garda Commissioner.
The GRA and Commissioner Drew Harris' team met this morning for talks on his intention to revert to the pre-covid roster in November.
The association says, while certain issues such as resources, recruitment and suspensions were discussed, it's disappointed the central issue regarding rosters remains unresolved.
It's President, Brendan O'Connor, says little progress was made today, and the GRA's members vote on confidence in Commissioner Harris should be completed by mid-September:
"We expect that says the ballots will be printed and sent out to members within the next two weeks. There'll be probably a four week window for members to cast a ballot. Then our independent person will process and count the ballots. So we're talking a period of somewhere in the region of six weeks".
