A Kerry County Councillor is calling on the council to save the See Something Say Something initiative. It was announced earlier this month that the text alert system, which has operated in Tralee and Killarney, would be suspended due to a shortage in funding. At this month’s meeting of Kerry County Council, Cllr Niall Kelleher called on the council to explore all opportunities to keep the initiative alive in Kerry. The reply given to Cllr Kelleher’s motion stated that Kerry County Council has no involvement in the operation of the See Something Say Something text alert system. It added any operational issues are a matter for An Garda Síochána, as the system allows for direct contact with An Garda Síochána and it is the data controller.
