The NEC held the monthly meeting in Wicklow this month and afterwards attended the retirement function of Declan McCarthy which was held at Wicklow Golf Club. President Seamus Nolan made a presentation to Declan on behalf of the association. We wish Declan and his family all the best as he enters this new chapter of life.

Pat Jordan, the first President of the Association (who addressed our annual delegate conference this year) has kindly forwarded a photograph of the first NEC to us with a short history of the foundation of the AGS along with a presentation he gave to a symposium at St Patricks College in Drumcondra in 1988 dissecting a murder investigation. Also included is a letter received from a convicted man seeking clarification that “he was only convicted of manslaughter” Interesting stuff and many thanks to Pat for taking the time to write to us
