Minister Dermot Ahern Outlines Handgun Ban
The Minister for Justice Equality and Law Reform, Mr. Dermot Ahern has outlined new proposals to seriously curtail the licensing of handguns in the state. The full text of his announcement can be found here.

The NTSA has no further details on how exactly this new regime will be implemented, but wish to point to the following paragraph in the Minister's statement "The Minister is prepared to make very limited exceptions in relation to Olympic sports only." Until we have further information, we are advising our members not to initiate any license applications for the present.

The Minister has also specified that radical tightening of the procedures for licensing handguns will be adopted and we assume that these will also apply to our members when they are published. We will advise you should any further details become available.

Monday, 22 May 2006

The NTSA is sending a delegation of two to this years competition.

 

Damien Fagan will be representing Ireland at this years Junior International held in Suhl Germany from 24th to 27th May...

Damien having recently been awarded a Junior Carding Grant by the Irish Sports Council for his achievements last year is hoping to continue his progress up the International rankings, and setting a new Irish Junior record score.

 

He will be accompanied in Suhl by his father Leslie, a seasoned Irish target shooter having represented Ireland at numerous Internationals both in Europe and USA.

Leslie will be Head of Delegation on this occasion.

 

Damien will be competing with, what the German Shooting Federation (DSB) rightly claims to be “the international elite of junior shooters” with teams from the four corners of the World taking part.

 

The NTSA wish both Damien and Leslie a safe and successful journey.
