Irish police report reveals road officers' low productivity and management's reluctance to act.

An independent review, the Crowe Report, found that some Irish police officers in road policing units are "unproductive" and "unconcerned" with their duties, with supervisors hesitant to address poor performance due to potential industrial relations issues. The report highlights significant variation in productivity, lack of resources, and vacancies, with the majority of officers still being professional. The findings have raised concerns about the effectiveness and management of the units.
