It is the interaction with all of what is happening here now. The witnesses are talking about the visually impaired and sign language. That should be done from a very early stage and it is welcome that the Garda is doing that. However, when gardaí are recruited and are in Templemore, it would be important that would be done. This is very welcome and is a great initiative.
