Garda reform

Sir, – I note in the editorial on Garda reform that "special funding will be made available for a redundancy programme aimed at obstructive officers" ("Garda reform: starting all over again", December 22nd).

It seems like a case of “all carrot and no stick” is being applied! – Yours, etc,
