Chairman John Doherty and Council member Breda Doherty attended a one day seminar at the Garda College in Templemore Co Tipperary this week. The seminar was to explain the changes and responsi​bilities of governing bodies with the new legislation coming into law later this year with the new Child Protection Act. Also covered was the new Parent​al Consent form for junior players under the age of 18.

The Garda Vetting Unit (GVU) is moving to E-Vetting after the new Legislation comes in to law. The second half of the day was spent going through the procedure for E-Vetting, which should speed up the process. It is hoped to get people vetted within 7 days when it is done electr​onically as opposed to the 19 weeks it took some time ago.
