Good to see a solution found to enable Gardaí to go on the relocation mission to Greece.

"Members of an Garda Síochána required to travel to Greece as part of the joint mission to relocate refugees from the Moira camp will also be vaccinated."

An amendment to conscription laws in Syria means those who have evaded military service must pay £5,700 or have their property or land seized.

This will have an outsized impact of Syrian refugees and displaced persons.
