Cross border co-operation hailed
Stormont’s Justice Minister David Ford and Dublin’s Minister for Justice and Equality Frances Fitzgerald joined PSNI Chief Constable George Hamilton and interim Garda Commissioner Noirin O’Sullivan at a conference in Belfast that highlighted the co-operation between law enforcement agencies in both jurisdictions. The annual cross border organised crime seminar was held a week after Irish and British authorities worked together to intercept a yacht trafficking around a tonne of cocaine off the Cork coast.
