On this week's 'Between the Lines' programme, Andrea is joined by a panel of experts to discuss the topic of the use of body cameras by Gardaí.
Together they discuss the circumstances in which the use of body cameras might be useful for Gardaí on the street while dealing with potentially dangerous situations as well as issues surrounding the protection of personal data and privacy and ask whether the roll-out of the use of body cameras may be counterproductive to the needs of our law enforcement officers.
