title = "Interviewing suspects in the Republic of Ireland: establishing some sort of PEACE in a search for the truth",
abstract = "Similar to the development of the PEACE model of interviewing in England and Wales, necessary changes in the approach to police interviewing in Ireland were borne out of miscarriages of justice that resulted in a post-scandal programme of reform. High-profile enquiries highlighted an entrenched culture that promoted a confession-based approach to suspect interviewing. It was recommended that An Garda S{\'i}och{\'a}na (the Irish police) adopt the PEACE model or a close equivalent. Consequently, a framework of investigative interviewing known as the Garda S{\'i}och{\'a}na Interview Model (GSIM) was developed. This chapter explores the impetus for change, in historical, social, and political context; outlines the regulation of interviews with suspects; and provides comprehensive, up-to-date overviews of the GSIM and related police training. The compliance of the Irish system with the M{\'e}ndez Principles, both in terms of the interviewing model and legal safeguards for suspects, is also examined.",
