GARDAÍ IN LIMERICK have said that 11 people have been arrested as part of an investigation into alleged sexual exploitation of children.
The eleven adults – who range in age from 20s to 70s – were arrested today by gardaí from a number of stations for alleged offences in the South West.
The six women and five men are being held at various stations in Limerick, Cork and Clare.
They were all arrested today in parts of Limerick, Tipperary and Kerry under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1984.
Gardaí said no further information is available at this time as this is an ongoing investigation.
Newsagents and shops will have to pay more to sell cancer
Great comment there Gerry…..NOT
I hope they are fully staffed with nurses in the BURN department!
But will purveyors of other Carcinogens pay more? I’m sure Mr Noonan will ignore Hep sufferers: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) are viruses that cause acute or chronic liver disease. They are listed in the report as “known human carcinogens” because studies in humans show that chronic hepatitis B and hepatitis C infections cause liver cancer. Approximately one million United States residents are chronically infected with HBV, which primarily is transmitted through sexual contact (50%) and intravenous drug use (15%).
I hate what has happened. I feel sorry for people coming out of school. Go to college? Can’t afford fees. Get a job. Is none. Maybe a part time job. Sure how do you save to go to college on a part time wage?
Cigarette cause Cancer n its Legal n Cannabis is Anti Cancer n its illegal….
My choice is what I choose to do,
And if I’m causing no harm, it shouldn’t bother you “Mr whoever Make the Law”
@ Criminal
imagine the amount of money generated if they make drugs legal then tax it
At least they left the box of matches alone?
A Nurse Bank, I Would love some interest from that.
In NY where I work we use agency and Per Diem (bank nurses). It is cheaper as they don’t get benefits or pension contribution. Great for my budget but these group work when they want not when I need them. And nary a one is available when it comes to the holiday season. It causes morale issues with regular staff who are paid less and have little choice about schedules.
If that’s the case in NY Mary, be very interesting in Ireland to see how that works
I see that already where I work , the full time staff have little or no choice when it comes to Christmas but the permanent but cover staff refuse to work it as they feel they don’t have to , however they are the first to complain about not getting ti work every Sunday and Bank holiday . It has caused serious problems amongst staff . Wont work in the long term.
how many people and new born babys have cancer and never smoked??????????
You should take the percentage of people who don’t/have never smoked and get cancer versus the number of smokers who get cancer. Or you could engage your brain before you comment.
Loads, if they live near Chernobyl.
Anything about when the free gp care comes in for under 6s?
Why not bring in “free” everything? How many jobs will be lost raising the €40,000,000 to pay for “free” under 5 doctors visits? I’d guess about 4,000.
I just asked a simple question. I have read a good few of the budget documents abduction could see no detail on it. as this article is aimed at going into more detail on the budget, i thought it was the appropriate place to ask the question.
and* not abduction!
Sandra legislation will be needed here and this is likely to be heavily opposed ao I reckon wr’re looking at Q4 2014 before anything concrete is in place
If I visit a doctor under five times , is it free?
Is that a typo the our debt will rise from 205 MILLION to 2011 BILLION by 2016? Or should the million have been billion???
Typo. We are already screwed
Making cigarettes illegal or having any drug illegal for that matter is not a good idea. While this may seem counter-intuitive, it makes sense.
Crimes rates from a black market would increase and thus violence. Stress would be put on Gardai, courts and the justice system and also cost a fortune. Products would be adulterated and worse for your health. People would still end up in hospitals which would cost the government a fortune (taxing such products is what’s paying these bills currently).
Not to mention illegality prevents researchings developing cures and treatments due to harsh licensing of studying illegal substances.
All on top of making criminals of otherwise law abiding people AND making access to their treatment more difficult!
Sandra its under 5′s. I dunno, but would imagine Jan 1st as with most reforms.
It is 5 and under apparently and i heard it is later in 2014 as they haven’t planned anything yet to implement it.
I am building an Ark.. Any takers?
have your say
