A spokesman for the Garda Representative Association across Cavan and Monaghan says the current recruitment crisis facing the force is "unprecedented" and "very concerning."
James Morrisroe believes poor conditions, lack of equipment, pensions and heavy administration work are all to blame for the increasing number of resignations across An Garda Síochána.
25 Gardaí have walked away from their post this year, sparking concerns about the level of morale in the force.

While almost one quarter of Gardaí who left the force last year resigned rather than retired.
Mr Morrisroe claims members of An Garda Síochána believe they are not getting the support they need which is evident in the number of Gardaí quitting the force.
