    Sorry, no.

    I am intrigued. Why are you looking for it ?

    Was someone arrested in Irish or were they arrested in English but wanted to be arrested in Irish ? I am not being facetious as I have wondered about this point given that Irish is supposed to be the official language !

    It could provide some potential wriggle room for suspects.

    Post the full Garda caution in English + Irish forum?
    I'm curious too: why?

    English language caution: "You are not obliged to say anything unless you wish to do so, but whatever you say will be taken down in writing and may be given in evidence."


    Found this related article.

    I actually want it for a music track that I'm writing to highlight the hypocrisy of the whole Celtic mysticism thing against the actuality of a country which will drive a motorway through some its ancient historic sites. can't say much more or it'll give the game away.
    To answer your question. As far as I know, if you are a native Irish speaker the Gardai are obliged to caution you in Irish.

    Thanks. Unfortunately I've heard that one too many times. However, it's good to have it in writing as I may have someone who can translate it for me.

    Yes it could and I've seen it done before. This might sound wrong, but as society becomes more multicultural so do the Gardai and this could be a small chink in their armour.
