“We can’t take our eye off the ball.”
He also identified “radical Islam” as among the leading threats to the State.
“I’m not going to sit here and give you a guarantee of yes or no”: Newly-appointed Garda Commissioner Justin Kelly refuses to rule out Garda officers going around Dublin removing Irish tricolours from poles at the behest of Dublin City Council. Question by Ben Scallan.

Mr Kelly will begin the five-year term September 1.
