JOINT POLICING COMMITTEE RAISES CONCERNS OVER HEADSHOPS

Date Published: 04-Feb-2010

The emergence of Headshops across the county came under the spotlight at this weeks meeting of the County Joint Policing Committee.

The businesses - which are legal - sell herbal and synthetic substances and are opening at a rate of one a day nationwide, according to Gardai.

Councillor Michael Fahy raised concerns for county towns with high student populations which could be targeted as potential Headshop locations.
