The Agenda
Louth Communities ‘Devastated by Gangland, Rural and Drug Crime’ – 03/07/2025
•
A “shift in gangland, rural and drug crime” across Louth must be met with action” according to one Louth TD.
Deputy Paula Butterly welcomed the news this week that Local Community Safety Partnerships are to be launched across the country, including one new LCSP for Louth.
It will replace the former Joint Policing Committee, wound up in 2024 following recommendations that multi-agency structures are put in place to bring together key stakeholders including An Gardai Siochana, local residents, businesses, state agencies and community groups.
Deputy Butterly spoke to us this morning on The Agenda about this.
