Drones must be monitored

GARDAI will investigate the nature of drones flying over homes after the matter was raised by Cllr Oliver Tully.

‘Is there a policy that they are treated like unlicenced cars and can they be confiscated,’ he asked.

They are in fact under the auspicious of the Aviation Authority but Supt Watters said that they are a ‘new aspect’ that criminals will be using.
