The Athy Joint Policing Committee was established in 2006 (under the Garda Siochana Act 2005 as part of a pilot scheme). The success of the scheme in the initial areas has led to the establishment of further committees on a countrywide basis. The Athy JPC currently has members representing Athy Town Council, Gardai, Oireachtas members and the Community.
In addition, the JPC will host an annual meeting to take place in October (date to be confirmed). Suggestions for this year's theme are currently being invited and will be considered by Steering Committee. The input of local organisations and individuals is particularly welcome at all times.
