The Limerick native says he plans to get tough on rural crime during his tenure, while tackling drugs is also a major issue he wants to address.
To do this, he intends to ensure there are more Gardaí on the beat and visible in communities.
However, Chief Superintendent Derek Smart says he also needs the public’s help with information.
