FCP Notice re: Firearms Act roll out
Following advice from the Attorney General that Statutory Instruments giving effect to the firearms act amendments must apply to full sections of the Act and not to part sections, it is now the case that some of the planned roll out of the new firearms code will be delayed at least until the enactment of the Firearms Miscellaneous Bill which is due for publication on July 3rd under the Programme for Government. As a result, the intended classification of restricted firearms will not now be applied on May 1st 2008 as planned.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

IRISH SHOOTING TEAM COMPLETES OFFICIAL TRAINING

Bisley Camp, Surrey, UK, August 6 -- The Irish Junior Shooting Team today successfully negotiated equipment control checks and completed their official training for the GB Junior International event. Tomorrow sees the first shooters on the line from the Irish team, with Damien Fagan and Shane Flynn entering the Junior Men's Air Rifle event at 0820. Both shooters are anticipating their upcoming matches, and Team Coach Geoff Cooney believes both will do well: "Both Shane and Damien are ready for this match", Geoff said, "They have their technical routine down, all it comes down to now is the mental game on the day and they have their heads in the right place for that".

Wednesday will see the Junior Women take their places on the firing line, while the entire team will be entering the Grand Prix event this coming Thursday.
